Vehicle description
Up for a No Reserve auction is a 1991 Mercedes Benz 500SL Roadster. This car was over $100K when sold new, and still turns heads. Current NADA Average retail value is $5,959 and high retail is $9,900. This Benz starts, runs, and pulls strong and has a clean Utah title. Interior and exterior are both in presentable condition with normal wear for vehicle age. Paint is presentable all around the car. Driver seat has visible wear and a tear on the bolster from getting in and out, but passenger side is very clean. Instrumentation tested and one issue noted is that the Speedometer/Odometer stopped working which is typical for this model and you can find resources online to rebuild or send out for a rebuild. This just recently stopped working, so mileage is still believed to be indicative of what the motor has been run. This car has been sitting for the majority of the last 3 years, with the occasional weekend cruise. I just installed a new battery and it fires up reliably ($200 you won"t have to spend). When pulling this out of longer term storage, idle was a little rough at first, but once warmed up it smoothed out, then when test driven on highway it ran out very smooth and pulls strong. Tires have good tread- currently running rear snow and ice rated tires. Body has a few small dings, but as visible in pics there are no major dents, no rust, and it looks good on the road. Windshield has a vertical crack on the passenger side, but does not obstruct view for driver. Hard top and soft top are in great shape, but currently only go up and down manually as it seems the hydraulic lifters are not working. ABS light is intermittently on and off. Overall, this is a car that needs someone to drive it and give it a little love as today she sits too much due to other cars that are taking my time. Included are 2 key FOBs, original owners manuals, maitenance coupon book with records from new to 55K miles, original tire jack and tools including soft top tool, original first aid kit. Car has an aftermarket CD player with removable face and remote. Overall this is a fun convertible roadster with a lot of power that is great for the weekend cruises, or the enthusiast who wants a solid driver from this classis generation of SL roadster.
