Vehicle Description

cleanest and best kept 1987 Mercedes-Benz 560SEL Sedans around.
This 2-owner California long-wheelbase is shown in Code 904
Midnight Blue with Frigate Cladding over Palomino Leather. It also
had a MSRP of over $65,000 when new and is fully loaded! This was
THE big boy car to own in the 90's.

equipped:
-5.6L 8Cyl Gasoline Engine

-Fog Lamps
-Euro Lamps
-Heated/ Power Reclining Rear Seat

The body on the car is in very good condition and was extremely
well maintained. The paint on the car is finished in its original
color of Midnight Blue and has a brilliant shine and not a ding to
be found. The car has been completely inspected underneath from
front to back and is solid as a rock as any well cared for garaged
lifelong car should be. All chrome trim, glass, and rubber seals
are in great shape. Original windshield in chip free and has
original stickers on it. The car looks as nice as the day it rolled
off the Mercedes lot. It just had a full detail done at a cost of
over $500 so this car looks spectacular! The car is accented by the
original set of correct chrome wheels which look great and wrapped
in like new radials.
The interior is in very nice original condition all around. Its
life long garage storage is obvious at close examination of the
crack and fade free interior. The dash and door panels are in very
nice condition with only a few cracks on console wood trim around
shifter. The Palomino leather seats are all in very good condition
and look almost new, which shows the quality of leather used in
this car. All wood grain is in excellent condition. The carpets are
all very nice are not worn or damaged. The car also has original
Mercedes floor mats and rear foot rests. All dials and controls
function as they should, power windows and antenna also are fully
functional. The sound system is also very nice with the original
Becker Grand Prix sound system. All lights, gauges switches, and
accessories work as they should. The trunk compartment is very
clean and does have the original jack, tools, and the spare tire
and wheel. This car is all there and in excellent shape with all
functions and accessories working as they should.
Mechanically, this SEL runs GREAT! I have owned nearly 20 80's and
90's era Mercedes vehicles, and this car blows the doors off all of
them! The car starts right up and shifts smooth as silk. It drives
as good now as the day it rolled of the lot. The 5.6L V8 is
excellent. It is reliable, easy to fix, and parts are readily
available. The suspension is very tight and feels solid even at
autobahn speeds above 90mph. The car was always regularly serviced
and shows it in how flawless the car drives. The car is tight and
right as any low mileage car should be with no current mechanical
issues.
All in all, this is one of the cleanest and nicest SEL's that I
have had the privilege of being associated with, and is surely the
NICEST in the Country! It has been professionally maintained and
truly loved by its previous owners. This Mercedes is a fantastic
car for the price and includes every option offered in this car.
Any further questions please call Jon at 480-703-2337. The car is
located in Sunny Tempe, Arizona.
