1986 Mercedes-Benz 560 SL Roadster 37,539 miles, one owner, full service history













Vehicle Description
This is a beautiful and exceptionally well maintained one-owner 560 SL with its original soft top in perfect condition and original hard top as well.This is a one owner car sold new in Connecticut by Continental Motors and driven sparingly by its one and only owner. The car presents in nearly perfect condition with only slight wear noted on the driver's seat. Everything is original with the exception of a careful installation of a later radio but the original head unit was retained and is in perfect working order and condition.The paint is beautiful with only very slight crazing visible under very bright light which is the case with virtually all of the original paint SL roadsters wearing lighter metallic paint. You can barely see it in a couple of the detail photos. Very very hard to see in person. There is also a very small light scratch visible in the photos of the left rear lip of the wheel well. The gaps and panel fit are perfect and the original soft top is also perfect with the original Mercedes markings only present on original tops. It has 37,480 actual documented miles at the time of this listing and has just been safety inspected as well. I've had the car inspected and put about 100 miles on it since. It needs nothing! The chrome and rubber pieces are like factory new and the wheels are perfect with no curb rash or wear. The tires are brand new with under 300 miles on them.The A/C has been converted to R134A and blows cold. The interior is beautiful and totally original. The leather is soft with no major signs of wear and the carpeting is also excellent appearing new. All of the wood is original and excellent and all of the controls and gauges work as new.The engine bay is totally original with all work done that these cars require. It starts, runs and drives exceptionally well. The suspension and brakes are fully maintained and perform as Mercedes-Benz intended. The underside is perfect with original paint and factory materials still there.Overall, this car is ready to go anywhere comfortably and safely. It is an incredibly well preserved & maintained low mile original SL Roadster. I have many more pictures available.eBay attached an 'Autocheck' report which I think is their version of the Carfax. If you cannot see it, please let me know and I can send it to you.This car is coming from its original and now elderly owner and is on its original 1986 CT title. Please feel free to reach out with any questions or inspection requests. I also have extensive service history which I am happy to email to anyone at their request, just click the contact seller link or call 860-883-3998.
