Nice white 1966 Mercedes 230SL. Euro specification. numbers-matching. nbsp;recently imported from British Columbia. Canada. VIN: 113 042 12 018496. engine number: 127981-12-005341.
This classic Mercedes Pagoda is 50 years old this year. The engine has done 68. 00 miles since being completely rebuilt. and the car is solid. showing very little rust for its age. with every original feature present. including both hard and soft tops (the soft top has new canvas and new seals). Other features include: mechanical points replaced with electronic ignition; stainless steel exhaust system; optional Nardi wooden steering wheel (the car comes with its original steering wheel); original Becker Mexico radio; 15-spoke Mercedes alloy wheels with good tyres; cold-start valve converted to manual operation. giving easy starting in all conditions. and new(ish) paint in original Mercedes colour code 050 (Weiss) that looks OK from 20 feet. but will definitely need redoing at some point. Engine bay and interior are very clean. Speedometer is showing 88. 20km (not accurate).
The car comes with full service history and also has its original owner's manual. parts manual. and automatic transmission parts manual. Recent work (in the last 5. 00 miles) includes: new rear bumpers and re-chromed front bumpers. new front wheel bearings. new power steering pump. new water pump. and new brake master cylinder. The previous owner had the car for 15 years. and maintained it very well using factory parts. recording all work that was undertaken in a detailed hand-written ledger. and keeping all receipts.
This car represents a very stylish. rapidly-appreciating. reasonably-priced asset that can be driven and enjoyed while being restored. By this time next year. these cars may be much more out of reach - immaculate restored examples are already being priced from £75. 00 to over £100. 00. The car has just had its injectors cleaned. and it's running. driving. and stopping well. It has had all taxes and duties paid in full. and has full HMRC/NOVA clearance for UK or EU registration. but will need MOTing.  
Viewing and/or inspection are actively encouraged - please ask all questions you may have during the course of the auction. and please only bid if you genuinely intend to follow through! The car is located near Lavenham. in Suffolk (East Anglia).  
£1. 00. 00 PayPal/cash/bank transfer deposit within 48 hours of auction's close; remainder payable by bank wire transfer or cash within 5 days of auction's close.
