About this car
This 1985 380SL is offered on eBay by jdee426 in Ellicott City, MD. The asking price is $21,995. The car is finished in Beige over Tan, an automatic gearbox, power from a 3.8L Gas V8 engine. The odometer shows 64,000 miles. The eBay title does not name the model; the car's VIN identifies it as a 380SL. 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
- Gold paint looks glossy overall, but a close trunk view shows cloudy, dull patches in the finish, so budget for paint correction or a panel respray.
- Chrome grille, bumpers and trim look bright and straight, no rechrome cost showing.
- Brown seats look clean and well-shaped with no tears visible, no need to reupholster.
- Dash gauges look clear in the close view and the wheel shows normal wear, no dash repair bill showing.
- Brown soft top is shown half-raised and looks loose and creased, so budget to check its frame and fabric before trusting it in rain.
- Hardtop is shown fitted and looks clean in matching gold, and its stand is pictured too, so no extra stand cost.
- Engine bay looks complete but aged, with surface rust on the exhaust side and general grime, so budget for a tidy and a mechanical check.
- Underside shows a rusty exhaust and dirty front components, floors are not clearly shown, so the rust risk is not settled by these photos and a lift check is money well spent.
- Bundt alloy wheels look clean and tires show tread, no immediate replacement cost, and the trunk holds a matching spare.
Money: At $21,995 the gold paint and brown interior carry the price, but cloudy trunk paint, a tired-looking soft top and a rusty exhaust underneath mean it is not a no-spend car.
