Vehicle Details
AI Listing Summary
This 1980 Mercedes-Benz 380SLC is a usable classic cruiser that has been regularly maintained, as evidenced by its online MOT history and recent services. While the bodywork is sound, the interior shows its age and there's a reported noise in reverse gear, leaving room for improvements.

Condition
5
The car has been in regular use with 13,600 miles covered in the last 14 years, and the odometer currently shows 146,200 miles. The bodywork appears sound and straight with no obvious signs of corrosion, but the cloth interior is showing its age and the rear quarterlight blinds could use repainting. The vendor advises that reverse gear is noisy.
