Current customer rating: current rating for this car(2.15) based on 563 votes

ORIGINAL UK CAR. BUT WAS EXPORTED TO MALTA IN THE  EARLY 1990'S AND NOT USED FOR 10 YEARS PLUS. THE CAR WAS IMPORTED BY ME IN DECEMBER 2011. THE CAR HAS BEEN REPAINTED IN THE 90'S AND IS STARTING TO BLISTER IN A FEW PLACES. COULD DO WITH A REPAINT. PANELS ARE VERY STRAIGHT INDEED

A LOT OF RECOMMISIONING WAS  CARRIED OUT BY JOSEPH JOOS. CLASSIC MERCEDES BENZ SPECIALIST IN MILTON KEYNES.

ALL 4 CALIPERS OVERHAULED. MASTER AND SLAVE CYLINDER. NEW ENGINE MOUNTINGS. INJECTORS CLEANED. NEW LEADS. SPARK PLUGS. OILS AND BRAKE FLUIDS. A FEW SUSPENSION LINKS. STEERING UNIVERSAL JOINTS. THE GEARBOX IS PERFECT.
 

I HAVE ONLY RECENTLY STARTED RUNNING THE CAR TO BED IT IN. nbsp;IT DRIVES WELL. BUT THE ENGINE SMOKES ON START UP AND WHEN MOVING OFF SOMETIMES. THE SMOKING IS DUE TO THE VALVE SEALS NOT SEALING PROPERLY WHILST IT WAS STOOD FOR SUCH A LONG TIME. THE EXHAUST IS BLOWING AND I HAVE A ORIGINAL BACK BOX.

IT WAS ALL PATCHED FOR THE MOT AND IT HAS BEEN TAXED AS WELL. THE CAR IS REGISTERED IN MY NAME AT MY ADDRESS. THE CAR IS STORED ELSEWHERE NORMALLY.

I WAS GOING TO RUN THE CAR FOR A FEW MONTHS MORE TO SORT OUT ALL THE MECHANICALS AND THEN BEGIN WITH THE COSMETICS. PAINTING AND INTERIOR.

THE TWO FRONT SEATS NEED COVERING AND ALL THE CARPETS NEED REPLACING.

DUE TO THE VALUE OF THE CAR THE WORKS NEED TO BE DONE PROPERLY AND I DO NOT HAVE THE TIME TO FINISH THIS ANYMORE. SO I HAVE TO SADLY PUT IT FOR SALE. THE CAR DOES HAVE ELECTRIC SUNROOF AND WINDOWS AND THEY DO WORK.
I KNOW THESE ARE FETCHING UPWARDS OF £60000 ALL DONE. I WANTED TO GET ALL THE WORK DONE SO I KNEW  IT WAS DONE.

NO SILLY OFFERS OR  TIME WASTERS WHO HAVE NOTHING BETTER TO DO.   I AM BUSY AND HAVE 2 CHILDREN. SO PLEASE BE CONSIDERATE AND ONLY VIEW IF YOU INTEND TO BUY. IT IS NOT PERFECT SO NO DREAMERS. THIS CAR NEEDS FINISHING.   I HAVE ALL THE RECEIPTS FOR WORK DONE. IT IS THE CHEAPEST 280SE 3. 5COUPE IN THE UK. WILL SHIP ABROAD ONCE FULL PAYMENT IS RECEIVED.

AFTER A QUITE A FEW WEEKS I DROVE IT YESTERDAY. NO SMOKING AT ALL. SO THE VALVE RUBBER SEALS MAY BE STARTING TO SEAL AGAIN. THIS WAS WHAT JOSEPH JOOS. THE MERCEDES SPECIALIST  SAID WOULD HAPPEN. TEL 07976367111
