Vehicle Description
West Coast Classics are proud to present an absolutely exceptional
example of this mostly all original 1979 Mercedes-Benz 450SL
roadster, the penultimate year of the 450SL series, with only 64K
original miles in its original 'Anthracite Gray Metallic' factory
color paint with its all original Black MBTex interior in
absolutely beautiful condition throughout! Reportedly always
garaged with no accidents or rust and never smoked in. The original
factory 'Anthracite Gray Metallic' (color code 172) factory paint
is in very fine condition with virtually no noticeable
imperfections and all original 'Black' MBTex interior is also in
gorgeous shape with virtually no signs of wear, except for only a
couple of very minor signs of wear in the drivers seat bolster and
seat, see close up pictures below. The original wood and the
original dashboard are in exceptional shape. The car has its
original and highly desirable factory chrome 'Bundt' wheels which
are in exceptional condition and the car has its original factory
matching hard top and original German canvas black soft top which
is also in absolutely excellent condition.The car's factory options
include: automatic transmission, power assisted steering, power
brakes, tinted glass, cruise control, electric window lifts,
electrically heated rear window on hard top, fully independent
suspension, power assisted four wheel disc brakes, limited slip
differential, automatic antenna, Halogen head and fog lamps,
automatic air conditioning with climate control, central locking,
factory chrome 'Bundt' wheels and the original 'Becker' AM/FM
cassette/radio with manuals is available as well as all the
original dealer owners manuals. The car drives exactly like such a
well maintained and serviced Mercedes should and must be seen and
driven to be truly appreciated. The engine is extremely strong with
no noticeable oil leaks, the transmission shifts smoothly through
the gears and the temperature always remains cool. All the options
are working as they should. Without doubt, this is one of the
finest classically beautiful roadster designs built by
Mercedes-Benz, probably the last classically beautiful convertible
series they built and now becoming more desirable and collectible
than ever before - certainly you will look long and hard to find a
finer all original head-turning example with only 64K original
miles of this penultimate year model available anywhere else!
