Current customer rating: current rating for this car(2.15) based on 62 votes
This year celebrates 50 years since the first SLC C107 was introduced to the world...and regrettably I'm parting this rare 1978 450, finished in metallic Milan Braun with only 72760 miles from new.10 months M.O.T, tax free and a fully stamped MB history from new until the early-mid 2000s, then stored until lockdown prior to a recent overhaul. Comes with a large file containing a plethora of documentation, original books and recent stamped and signed authentication from Mercedes Benz owners club and Mercedes Benz of Stuttgart.There's no issue with the usual rot areas like the battery tray, inner wings or subframe, it's solid, it's had some welding done, some paint correction and rustproofing. Palomino trimmed time warp cloth interior is generally good and functional. features fully working period push n twist stereo, central locking, Clifford alarm, 4 electric windows, electric sunroof and aerial. There's no dash/veneer cracks, original first aid kit is unused.Chrome is generally good and there's no nasty big visual bumper blisters.Timeless Fuchs 'Mexican hat' alloy wheels are good with 4 new matching Good Year GT 2 tyres.Everything condition wise be it mechanical, structural or aesthetically has been taken in to consideration inline with current national and international market trends and is therefore priced accordingly. This is not a concourse show car, but a turn-key classic in good condition that can be enjoyed effortlessly, ultimately it could be improved on with a few rubber seals, a boot carpet and a small seat trim if desired for a very small amount, but ready to use and mingle 'as is'. This is a non-A/C model but is plenty cool enough with them pillarless windows down and electric sunroof open. The body is very straight and there are no nasty panel mis-alignments.  A full body detail has been carried out using only premium products. Currently it remains garaged, there are zero oil leaks, knocks ,bangs or squeaks and it's run every day.This is a real sleeper, a 43 year old iconic antique GT coupe that has a bulletproof engine, smooth auto gearbox and makes lots of power, it has a lovely subtle graceful patina and receives lots of admiration everywhere it goes and is the coolest thing to drive.I love this car and am not really in a rush to sell but ultimately could do with the space, please don't ask for a detailed walk round video, I simply don't have the time, if you're genuinely interested please come and have a look.Drive away for £14495 o.n.o - half the price of an A1 concourse car. I do not wish to part exchange anything.*politely; Offers are invited but silly ones will be ignored, this is a rare straight, solid and reliable car. There's not many of these left now, last look showed only 130 registered in the UK and the prices are way more in Europe with over double the mileage/worse condition...I'm not giving it away. No 'best price'?. This historic vehicle is being offered for sale by former JD Classics/Woodham Mortimer Cars UK personnel, I have lots of experience with many classic marques including plenty of Mercedes models. It can be viewed and test driven at my home address near Maldon in Essex approximately 30 minutes from M25 London. Parties of more than two wishing to view will be turned away, I do not appreciate tyre kickers or scopers - sorry. PLEASE ONLY CONTACT IF YOU GENUINELY WANT TO BUY A VERY RARE MERCEDES INVESTMENT..PLEASE VIEW BEFORE MAKING AN OFFER OR AT LEAST BE SERIOUS.
