If you are looking for a classic Mercedes with a great history, low
miles, and in excellent shape it is difficult to find something
better than this 1981 380SL! Purchased brand new by the current
owner's parents in 1981, this car was picked up directly from the
Stuttgart plant in Germany and was driven through the country-side
before being shipped back to California where it remained for most
of its life. The original blue paint still looks great after all
these years and pairs very well with the tan interior that looks
like it was hardly used. Topping it all off the original drive
train only has 35,974 miles on it and has been maintained closely
since it was new. Within the last couple of years maintenance
included a set of new tires and a tune up. Once behind the wheel of
this 380SL, you will be amazed at nice everything has held up for
almost 40 years! The 3.8L V8 fires up quickly with the turn of a
key and purrs nicely at idle. The automatic transmission shifts
smoothly between gears, the steering is tight, and the suspension
offers a smooth ride. This 1981 Mercedes 380SL is the best of all
worlds and may be an excellent option if you are looking for
something that has a lot of room for appreciation while still
loving it and enjoying it! This vehicle is located in our Denver
showroom. You can view this 1981 Mercedes Benz 380SL in greater
