THERE IS NO RESERVE ON This Classic Mercedes Sports Car. It is truly one-of-a-kind, NE OWNER CAR. The only reason I am selling, s because of health issues. It has been gently driven, erviced every 3,000 miles, aintained and repaired with everything up to date. This model of Mercedes is built to last and with the proper maintenance, ou can expect to get many, any years of enjoyment. This model Mercedes Benz was offered from the factory with a limited slip differential, utomatic transmission, utomatic braking system(ABS), rivers side air bag, eather seats, ower windows, entral locking system, heft alarm, utomatic climate control, M/FM Cassette Radio (I have upgraded to a Kenwood MP3 player with remote control), ower antenna with adjustable height control, emovable hardtop with rolling storage rack and cover, cloth car cover.
The engine has, s I list it, 97,380 gently, riven miles. Please don't be concerned with the mileage on this car, his model of Mercedes is built for a million miles. The mileage is low, nly 7,000 per year.
