Vehicle Details
AI Listing Summary
This 1984 Mercedes-Benz 280 SL stands out with its rare manual gearbox and desirable metallic gold finish, accompanied by a hardtop. Having had only one owner since 1992 and used sparingly, it presents a compelling opportunity, though some light re-commissioning may be necessary.
Condition
7
The car is described as being used sparingly and has been owned by the same person since 1992, suggesting good care. However, the mention of 'some light re-commissioning might be needed' indicates it's not in perfect condition and would benefit from minor attention, aligning with a 'Very Good' rating.
