As one owner said back in 1996 this car has been involved in "numerous cherished transfers".  And now its our turn to pass it on.

We have owned the car for ten years and used it regularly until we had children and bought a 'sensible family car'. The reality is it needs more love and attention than we have the skills to supply.

The good points:

Low mileage 84,907We have oodles of documentation from the first registration document, owners manual, numerous invoices for work carried out, mot certificates that demonstrate this is genuine mileage.Beautiful Diamond Blue paintworkVery rare model the 420SL build numbers totalled just 2,148 worldwide!V8 engineHard and soft topSo solid it drives like a tankCar starts and drives

And here's the work that needs to be done/things to consider:

The 4 jacking points need welding work (not all the way thru but some work on each)Bodywork needs restoration and full respray as there is some bubblingBulk head has a hole on one side that has let some water in and needs attentionRust on left hand side passenger footwell and passenger side due to water coming inSoft top is the original in navy blue and is usable but has a tear so would need repairing or replacementInterior is tired but original sp fair play it is nearly 40 years old1 key onlyThe car looks great in the photos but I'd advise coming to look unless you are confident that you can fix these issues. We are in Nailsworth in Gloucestershire. We bought this car in 2010 for £13,995 - we know it needs work hence the low reserve. Cars like this restored are climbing in value and very popular so if you have the time and knowledge then the investment will be worth it. Thanks for looking! Will accept cash on collection or bank transfer only.
