Vehicle Description
A 1983 Mercedes-Benz 380SL at this value price already seems quite
tempting. But as you dig deeper, you'll discover investments in all
the places you want, and all the best features from the day (like
the two tops.) So check-out a true classic that really gets it
right.
Mercedes makes a convertible that instantly commands attention. The
crisp lines are a dedication to a thoughtful design and a
commitment to solid craftsmanship. That's why they always look good
when owners take the time to care for them correctly. Not only does
the fit and finish of this one prove it's a great classic, but also
so do the investments. For example, there was a re-application of
the factory Anthracite Gray Metallic later in life to keep this
looking glossy in the sunshine. And there was even the addition of
later Mercedes 15-inch alloys for added distinction. Plus, this has
the desirable setup where there's a color-matched hardtop whenever
you want to have a coupe-like profile, or the soft top is there for
when you get caught out in the rain.
This was meant to be open to the word, and the tan interior has a
timeless sophistication against the metallic gray exterior. And
again, this has the right investments to keep it looking good,
including fresh carpeting and new leather seat covers. Even the
glossy wood on the center console looks great. It makes for a fine
place to eat away the miles effortlessly. It's also comfortable
because of the long list of desirable features, including power
windows, cruise control, power steering, an upgraded AM/FM/CD
stereo, and cold-blowing factory air conditioning.
The 3.8-liter V8 engine is a torque-filled powerhouse that keeps
the 380SL moving with authority. This is believed to be the
original engine, and it has been under proper care, including a
rebuild within the last few years. What keeps these cars in demand
is the way they know how to enjoy the open road. The four-speed
automatic transmission w/overdrive and fully independent suspension
work together to deliver a sharp handler that also is an easy
long-distance cruiser. Plus, there have been recent investments in
the shocks and four-wheel disc brakes to really keep this one
feeling good.
The sale comes complete with the owner's manual and maintenance
records. This has the right care and investments, and it's all
offered for a value price. So don't miss this deal, call today!
