Description

The current owner is a Mercedes enthusiast who has owned many Mercedes vehicles over the years and is very knowledgeable about these cars. He purchased this car in 2021, and it has had a total of five owners, with the first being a Mercedes dealer. The history shows that from 1973 to 2016, it was with the same owners from Sala. The car's bodywork is very solid and maintains the original paintwork, except for a front wing that was replaced and repainted years ago; it has been very well kept. The mileage is likely around 177,844 km, although this can't be verified. The car has only been driven during the summer months and has taken several trips in Europe with the current owner.

Condition

  • Mechanical condition:

    As mentioned, the car runs and drives very well. Recent work done, beyond routine maintenance, includes renovating the hydraulic brakes, renovation of the carburetors, adding a rust-free exhaust section, and an instalation of a new motor for the interior fan. The only potential issue noted is that the temperature meter sometimes stops working, although it functioned properly during my test drive. The engine bay is clean and tidy, complemented by good wheels and tires.

  • Interior condition:

    The interior is complete, original, well-kept, and clean. The only notable damage is that the driver's seat has holes (as shown in the pictures), but the other seats are in fine condition. The door cards and headliner are clean, and all the instrumentation, including the radio, works well. The carpets and rubber mats are in good condition, and has rear seat belts,

  • Exterior condition:

    The bodywork is remarkably solid with no major rust issues or signs of welding, and the underbody is clean and tidy. The paintwork is almost entirely original, except for the front wing that was replaced and repainted; it remains clean and bright. There is a small dent on the lower door edges and a few minor blisters and touch-ups in places but nothing significant (as shown in the pictures). The chrome work is nice and bright all around, and the boot space is tidy.

  • General condition:

    This car is well-kept and has been well looked after, with no rust issues. It drives well and is reliable, making it a perfect car to own and enjoy this summer. The only issue is that the seat will need a repair or a new seat cover, but that's about it.

Auction information

General information about the condition of the vehicles .
  • At this auction, many vehicles have been included in car collections and have been stored (mothballed) for a long time. For this reason, they are described from a collector's perspective and may need technical reviews and maintenance service - oil, battery replacement, new tires, brake review, etc. - before they can be used. .
  • During the auction days information about a vehicle may be updated up to the day before the auction ends. When you bid at the end of the auction period - and also if you have made an earlier bid - we therefore ask you to read the descriptions carefully, in case something has been changed due to new information.
