About this car
This 1981 380SL is offered on eBay by classic_car_addict in Mesa, AZ. It is listed at auction: the current bid stood at $3,500 when the listing was collected on November 3, 2026, with bidding scheduled to end on November 10, 2026. The car is finished in Astral Silver Metallic over Blue, an automatic gearbox, power from a 3.8L Gas V8 engine. The odometer shows 32,316 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
- Silver paint looks deep and glossy in the showroom photos, no paint money needed
- Chrome bumpers, trim and chrome Bundt wheels shine, no chrome money needed
- The hardtop is shown fitted and the car also poses top-down, but the soft top is never shown raised, so I can't judge the soft top
- Blue seats appear only in glimpses through the open top and look clean, but there is no proper interior photo in the sample, so I can't judge the interior in detail
- The engine bay looks very clean and complete in the close-ups, no detailing money needed
- One firewall close-up shows a small rust spot and a cracked heat shield, minor money but worth a look
- Panel gaps and paint reflections look even all around, no accident-repair signs in the photos
- No underside photo appears in the sampled photos, so I can't judge the underside
Money: the photos show a showroom-kept 380SL that looks worth far more than $3,500, so treat that figure as an auction starting bid, not a buy-it-now price.
