Vehicle Details

AI Listing Summary

This 1986 Mercedes-Benz 300SL in desirable Nautical Blue is a fantastic example with 100,000 miles and a comprehensive service history. Recent work includes a new radiator, battery, and timing chain, indicating solid mechanical upkeep for a classic vehicle.

Condition 

7

The car is described as a 'fantastic example' and 'beautifully presented inside and out' with a 'large and well presented history file'. Recent major maintenance includes a new radiator, battery, rear brake pads, and a new timing chain and tensioner. However, it shows 100,000 miles, and while well-maintained, it has had several parts replaced and does have some age-related considerations, aligning with a 'Very Good' condition.
