Description
Finished in the period colour combination of Classic White over a blue check cloth interior with a blue soft top canvas and classic white hardtop.
Supplied new in 1985 to Mrs P. Vay from Cranleigh in Surrey via Mercedes-Benz agents Malaya Garage in West Sussex this 280SL clearly led a well maintained early life from new as the vehicles service booklet showcases the routine servicing which was done on the scheduled 'mileage or time' which ever came round sooner.
The vehicles comprehensive history file further announces that indeed this example has been maintained with that same care and attention all through its life, being entrusted to Mercedes Agents Malaya Garage and Puttocks of Guildford, as well as for the past 25 years coming to us at John Haynes for all servicing and maintenance.
Indeed, with this 280SL coming to us once a year for 25 consecutive years we are well placed to ensure with total confidence how good this vehicle drives and presents.
The Bodywork is pristine, and the interior is just how you would want a 40 years old original interior to present.
We have carried out recent works to ensure the vehicle is perfectly on point for its next owner and all recent works have been catalogued and entered into the impressive file which boasts many invoices, every MOT certificate in order since 1992 (33 in total) and the original service booklet boasting 37 service stamp entries.
The vehicle has covered 90, 160 miles from new and drives exceptionally well, free from mechanical fault and with a Maintenance Service and MOT carried out completely ready to go for its next owner.
At this price point against the peace of mind of its condition this vehicle we believe represents great value for money for Classic 1980’s R107 ownership.
Inspection and road test are strongly advised to appreciate this examples quality.
