1987 Mercedes Benz 300SDL - $16,000
This is a rare and special automobile.
This car has the hard to find SIX-cylinder turbo diesel engine rather than the common five-cylinder model. This engine provides more power and better mpg than the usual five-cylinder.
This is a ZERO accident car with a CLEAN title.
The car has 261,000 miles, however it is guaranteed to be the best condition example on the market. This is a two-owner car with both owners being good friends. The car has been looked after and maintained to a near fanatical degree, and this shows in its condition.
*Financing is available*
The exterior of the car has just been repainted using the highest quality OEM BASF Glasurit paint in the original steel grey metallic color. All glass and chrome trim is original and in fantastic condition, even the windshield is original. The brand new paint combined with the blemish free original chrome trim really makes this car look brand new from every angle.
(Rear badge can be refitted at buyer’s request.)
Interior of this car is even better than the exterior. It is 100% original in every way, yet shows ZERO wear. All leather surfaces are scratch, crease, rip, and blemish free and truly look brand new. The dash is the original one and is free of cracks and discoloration. The owner used to cover the interior with white towels if the car was to be left outside for more than a couple of hours.
Trunk of the SDL is also in excellent condition. The previous owner did his best not use the car to carry much cargo. Even the spare tire is the original 1987 Michelin and is unused along with the emergency toolkit.
The car was converted several years ago to run on vegetable oil but was done to the specifications of the more common 5-cylinder engine. As a result the engine was damaged after a few years of running the wrong fuel mixture. However the engine has just been completely rebuilt and is running in top form and converted back to traditional diesel fuel.
Recent work just completed:
- Complete engine rebuild
- Complete cooling system overhaul
- New Behr radiator, water pump, hoses
- Complete transmission rebuild
- BASF Glasurit repaint
- Air conditioning recharge and service
- 4 new tires and alignment
- New fog light lenses
Over a decade of service records and receipts are available, you can be assured of the pedigree of this automobile. It needs nothing and is ready for its new owner.
This is a special car in amazing condition and the price reflects that. It will take a certain buyer to appreciate this car for what it is.
