Description
Fully rebuilt since 2009, this immaculate 1983 Mercedes Benz 280 SL is for sale. It is very rare in this colour and with the original hard top.
This classic historic car has no Road Tax or MOT requirements and also no ULEZ charge either.
The vehicle has been in the family for 8 years and has done only 2,000 miles in that time.
Reluctantly, we have decided it's time to part with our cherished Mercedes Benz 280 SL. This is not an easy sale. We simply hope it finds a good home with someone who will appreciate and enjoy it as much as we have.
This is a wonderful example that is mechanically excellent and fully operational. The bodywork is in outstanding condition, with only a few minor cosmetic imperfections, all of which can be seen in the photographs. The soft top is in excellent condition and operates perfectly. We have tonnes of service history from the 43 years of the car but much more since 2009.
The car underwent a comprehensive restoration in 2009 with no expense spared (photo album to show the restoration), and it comes with an extensive history file and a wealth of paperwork documenting its life and maintenance. As the tenth registered keeper (9th was in the same household), we have always looked after it with great care. Its had a underseal coat recently too. There are zero signs of rust with this vehicle. Throughout our ownership, it has been garaged and only used sparingly as a weekend or summer car. It has only done around 20 miles in the last 3 years and i hasnt seen rain in our ownership.
This is a genuine opportunity to own a piece of Mercedes Benz history. It starts, drives and performs exactly as it should, and is ready to be enjoyed by its next owner from day one. This car is in almost perfect condition for the age.
This car requires no MOT, no road tax and is exempt from ULEZ too as it is a classic historic car.
Serious enquiries only, please.
