Vehicle Details
AI Listing Summary
This 1986 Mercedes-Benz 500SL has undergone a comprehensive refurbishment with mechanical overhauls and interior/exterior reconditioning, including a repaint and new leather upholstery. Despite a reported "total loss" incident in 2016 which has been repaired, the car presents well with desirable European-market features and a significant amount of documented work.
Condition
7
The car underwent a significant refurbishment including mechanical overhauls and interior/exterior re-trimming. However, a "total loss vehicle" report from 2016 due to front-end and bumper damage, though repaired, lowers its rating from higher tiers. The odometer reading of 175k kilometers also indicates considerable use.
