IMPRESSIVE DESERT DRY CALIFORNIA 1971 MERCEDES 300SEL 3.5

Some of the best Real Estate people use a 300SEL to drive clients while showing properties. A Mercedes of this quality makes for a very effective sales tool. Most people have never ridden in a 70’s Mercedes 300SEL that appears this new and very expensive. When clients see that gleaming grill and Star pull up for the first time it makes for one long lasting first impression, SPECIALLY THE WOOD. Today’s automobiles all look the same making drivers look pretty much the same also. As Winston Churchill said: I AM A MAN OF VERY SIMPLE TASTES, NYTHING OF QUALITY PLEASES ME.”

The write up will stay very simple because this very special Mercedes speaks for itself. The photographer has shown the outside, nside, ngine and underneath. The California sun prevents rot and rust but it is hard on metallic paint, o in 2003 this 300SEL received a very professional repaint to the original color. All in all for 44-years this Mercedes received a lot of loving care and was timely serviced. The mileage indicates that lack of constant use of some things like power windows may need to have the window tracks lubricated All power windows work. Should you go full out on making everything like it was brand new, s some will do, hey wind up with a trailer queen being towed from car show to car show to sit and sip a cool drink from a folding chair and brag “MY MERCEDES IS BETTER THAN YOUR MERCEDES.”

When you drive the smooth air suspension (the suspension support system stays up for long periods) in a hand assembled Mercedes made of real steel you know what is meant by the slogan: “JUST DON’T GET THERE – ARRIVE”
