An excellent example final year 107 USA 380SL lifetime Northern California owned Mercedes. A clean Carfax shows plenty of service history and mileage documentation from new.

Nautical Blue paint is original and shows excellent depth and shine. Light checking as is not uncommon with age can be seen in a few areas upon closer inspection. There are a few scratches visible. Body is as straight as you will see with perfect lines and correct factory body panel fitment. Good chrome and all original MB glass.

We just installed brand new OEM Mercedes Leather seats, head rests and arm rest. High quality leather grain and texture with correct piping, stitching and perforations. Carpet shows light wear. Door cards are in good condition. Dashboard cover replacement is black. Wood trim has nice color with some patina. Equipped with a working aftermarket head unit that runs correctly through front speakers. Still retains original issue MB polyglas blue canvas top. While sparsely used and showing nice condition – there are a few minor splits near rear window and top. A replacement top can be acquired at our cost if new owner desires.

Our review of mechanical and driving condition: One of the better 380SL’s we have driven. There is zero hesitation or rough idle. Very strong through all the gears shifting smooth and correctly. Vehicle behaves nicely on the road without any pull or sway. A wonderful last year model 380 with tight steering and very comfortable suspension. Brakes with nice stopping power fairly effortlessly. Starts right up every time. Does not appear to have any leak issues at this time. A recent oil change was performed. and Just completed California emissions.

Tidy engine bay compartment. Ultra clean trunk and spare wheel area. Undercarriage reflects correct California hygiene without any corrosion issues.

We just had all 4 bundt style alloys restored to original factory condition. They received brand new Febi Billstein lug bolts and wear 14 inch Michelin correctly sized tires that show good tread.

AC is still original R12 factory equipment and blows cold air correctly on all fan speeds.

MB service booklet with stamps, dates and mileage showing service history. Full handbooks and manuals. 2 key fobs including valet. Original spare and jack.
