My moms father actually gave her this exact model it’s the car he owned in 1984 and she just sent it to get repaired so I decided to look into the car and we don’t have nice cars or a nice house so a car like this to me is absolutely beautiful eheh 🤦😗
4 thumbs down... the only reason to give this video a thumbs down is if you are unable to afford a classic old Mercedes. Those are jealousy thumbs down.
I’m a bit late to the party, but I’m buying an 380 SL so is there anything I should look out for maintenance wise and is it normal to have a faulty fuel pump?
The fuel system needs careful attention upon purchase. Other than that everything else is just basic mechanics. Check the soft top for cracks and window clearity. The engine is not the best as the 560 or 450 is probably more desirable.
Bill what app are you using on your iPhone to make your videos? It looks so good! So hard to believe your using a damn iPhone. I can’t pause and restart like u do??!!
Nice car, can I ask what he sold this for? Ours has extra set of euro lights and 45k miles. Is Diamond Blue on , Dark blue. Car is just ask clean and orginal as this beauty. Trying to set asking price
Lovely car but the US headlights and bumpers are so ugly and do the car no justice. Can you swap these out for the European alternatives under current law?
Jonathan Hollick I know this is an old comment but yes. In the U.S (idk about California anymore) but you can basically modify your car any way you want.
Funny thing is, as a 'car guy' but someone who is from the US, I have never thought of 'US bumpers' as being unattractive. Same thing on MGBs. And I think these headlights are phenomenal. I actually don't care for the Euro headlight look
