 Description

This is a very nice original unmolested 560SL. It only has 50K original miles since new. Clean car reports from Carfax and other reporting agencies. Mileage is documented with all of them also. AutoCheck score is 50 with similar vehicles between 15 and 36! This car is like a time capsule. It drives great with plenty of power. Both tops are in great condition. The AC even works with no leaks. It is riding on a nice set of Michelin Symmetry radials. This is not a rusty car since it has spent it's life in a garage right here in the south. This is a non smoker owned car. The lighter is still new and never used by looking at it. Steering wheel shows no wear as a 50K car should. I replaced the rear exhaust system with a new Ansa system. If you are looking for a good 560SL for fun and investment this is the one to buy. It is a very desirable color silver with gray leather interior. Paint and interior is original and in very good condition as it has not ever spent time in the sun and weather. Any questions please feel free to call or e-mail me at... 901-487-9356 & pacecarcorral@aol.com. Thanks for looking, Jim Brannon  Some Info On SLs...

In the 560SL, Mercedes got it all just right, offering essentially bullet-proof reliability, satisfying power, and aggressive good looks. The 560SL combined all that Mercedes learned about the V-8 R107 chassis cars into a cultural icon that quietly and confidently told the world its occupants had "arrived."

 

Standard equipment included driver's side airbag and ABS brakes. Interior improvements for the 560SL included lovely burlwood accents, improved lateral seatback support, and a power passenger side mirror. The steering wheel, however, was still fixed and seat adjustments were still carried out manually.
