About this car
This 1985 380SL is offered on eBay by garage_kept_motors in Grand Rapids, MI. The asking price is $17,900. The car is finished in Red over Tan, an automatic gearbox, power from a 3.8L Gas V8 engine. The odometer shows 96,239 miles. On an R107, check the front subframe mounts and the soft-top well for rust, and on the V8 cars the timing-chain guides.
What the photos show
- This is the same red SL roadster, in the same dealer showroom photo set, as the listing elsewhere titled as a 380SEC — the trunk badge here reads 380 SL, which matches these photos.
- Red paint is glossy and deep from every angle, and the door and fender panels look straight and ripple-free — no paint budget from these photos.
- Chrome grille, bumpers and trim look bright, and one photo shows all the headlights and fog lights lit — no chrome or lens money needed.
- Matching red hardtop is fitted in most photos and its paint matches the body — no hardtop budget from these photos.
- Tan seats are only glimpsed through the windows and look clean — but the interior is not shown up close in this sample, so hold back a small check on it.
- Bundt wheels look clean and straight and tires show good tread — no wheel or tire budget from these photos.
- No soft top photos in the sample — can't judge the soft top, hold back money until you see it up.
- No engine bay photos in the sample — can't judge the engine bay, hold back money for that inspection.
- No underside photos in the sample — can't judge the underside, hold back money for that inspection.
Money: At $17,900 the glossy red paint and bright chrome look money-ahead, but this sample never shows the soft top, engine bay or underside up close, so keep inspection money back before paying full ask.
