AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

GENERAL:

Stylish Mercedes-Benz 380 SL (R107) from 1982.

EXTERIOR:

Thanks to the mild climate in California, this SL is in an exceptionally dry and rust-free condition. The vanilla color paint is, especially given the age, in very nice condition. The underbody is nearly as new and completely dry. The car is very complete and is delivered with both a solid hard top and a neat soft top. The original appearance is enhanced by the new tires with classic Barock wheels.

TECHNICAL:

The car has recently undergone technical refreshment after the long period of inactivity. The fuel system has been completely cleaned and fitted with a new pump and filters and injectors. Oil and filters, additionally brake lines have been replaced and the braking system fully inspected. The car has been realigned and balanced. It runs and shifts well, with matching numbers, and a well-kept trunk and engine bay, offering this Mercedes a very solid base.

INTERIOR:

The interior is neat and exudes the vibe of the 1980s. The interior components are well preserved and the dashboard is original with no cracks. The trunk area looks, like the rest of the car, very well kept. The seats are somewhat aged (see photos).

DOCUMENTS:

The Mercedes comes with the original American title (California) and all import duties and VAT have already been paid for you. The original manuals, maintenance history, and onboard tool kit accompany the car. Due to the car’s age of 45 years, a COC document is not required for registration within Europe.

PICK-UP:

The car is currently located in Damwoude, the Netherlands, where it can be viewed. Transport throughout Europe can be arranged on request.

OTHER INFORMATION:

This is an honest, rust-free, and original R107 with a beautiful V8. Although the car runs well, it is not yet approved for road use. It is the ideal opportunity for a collector to take a classic SL with a unique story to the next level of perfection.

Disclaimer

Catawiki always aims to offer you the best possible buying experience. Our experts virtually review and select every vehicle in line with our submission guidelines and we require our sellers to provide the most accurate description of the vehicle. However, providing a fully detailed analysis of the vehicle is extremely difficult, and close to impossible. To guide you, we ask our sellers to provide information about the vehicle’s condition. Please consider that most vehicles for sale are classic vehicles and they often already have a whole life behind them, meaning that even a condition 1 or 2 vehicle might need maintenance to be ready for the road. It is advised to carefully read our submission guidelines that further describe details about the condition grades and types to manage your expectations. Cars are sold “as is”, meaning as described and in the condition they are in at the time of the sale and without any representation, warranty or assumption of liability of any kind as to the condition by Catawiki or by the seller. The condition of this item is the opinion of the seller and may differ from yours, your local garage, or the dealer’s opinion. This does not automatically mean the car does not conform to its description. Before bidding, please check your local legislation regarding vehicle registration. Neither the seller nor Catawiki is responsible for the registration of the vehicle in your country and will not accept a cancellation for your failure to register the vehicle. We also recommend that, if possible, you arrange a viewing with the seller before placing a bid.
