This 1989 Mercedes-Benz 560SL was sold new in Hollywood, California where it remained until 2007 when it was sold to the first owner showing 29k miles at that point. Roughly 8k miles were added by the second owner since then. Finished in Artic White over Royal Blue leather, this example comes with a new blue soft top and the original white hardtop as well. Power comes from a 5.6L V8 paired with a 4-speed automatic transmission, and a binder of service records dating to November of 1989 are included in the sale. Now showing 37,054 miles, a Carfax report has been provided by the selling dealer and the car is offered with a clean California Title and EU import papers stating all import duties are paid.
The Artic White (147) paint is still completely original, proved by the paint meter readings done by the selling dealers. This example features a new blue soft top, and the 15″ gullideck wheels are fitted with newer Michelin tires.
The interior is completely original trimmed in Royal Blue leather (272) with light creasing visible on the bottom bolster of the driver’s seat. A set of new floor mats have been installed, and a trunk tool kit is present as detailed in the gallery. The dash shows no cracks, neither does the wood of the center console.
An aftermarket Kenwood radio has been installed, though the factory radio was retained and is included in the sale. The air conditioning was converted to R134a in 2006, and the seller notes that the air conditioning blows cold. A recharge of the AC was done prior to the sale.
Power comes from a 5.6L V8 paired with a 4-speed automatic, and a binder of service records dating back to November of 1989 are included in the sale. Major records indicate that a mono valve kit was installed in 2015 along with new belts, plugs, wires, coolant, and a transmission service. The car was given an oil change by the selling dealer in preparation for sale.
The brakes were updated with new pads, rotors, and two new front calipers in October of 2016. Multiple undercarriage photos have been provided detailing the condition of various suspension and chassis components.
Extensive service records are present in the included binder along with a first aid kit, original owners manuals, and the factory radio.
