This 1979 Mercedes 450 SEL truly is a rare gem. Single family owned, this car was carefully owned since new by a college professor, who later in life gave the car to his grandson, from whom we acquired the car. It was always garaged and well cared for, testament to the amazing condition the car is in. Absolutely NO RUST, quite unheard of for cars of this era, low miles, accident free, and amazing original paint. Even the original Becker Mexico radio still works!
On the mechanical side of things, the car was well maintained, but we had a shop specializing in vintage Mercedes go through the car top to bottom, and sort out little niggles. The interior was in great shape, but due to some tears in the leather seat covers, and seat padding deterioration, we replaced all seat covers with new original leather from Germany, not some cheap knockoff. When is the last time you saw one of these cars with NO tears in the dashboard, and even the wood is near perfect!
This is undoubtedly one of, if not THE best W116 on the market today. It’s ready to drive across the country in style and comfort.
These vintage Mercedes were built like a tank, but have become extremely hard to find in good condition. This one is beyond nice, it’s collector grade.
After its full service, new tires, interior reconditioning and paint correction, this car is waiting for its discerning new owner.
