280 SL
1985 280Sl euro 5 speed manual 41,442 original miles

Hi All,

I am trying to determine the value of my late fathers 280SL he imported from Germany. It has 41,442 original miles and has a 5 speed manual transmission. The car is very clean as he only occasional drove it. Tan leather interior. Always garaged and never driving in the rain, both hard and soft tops are in immaculate shape. Any ideas of its value?

cheers

Have you looked at recent auction prices? Also, Hemmings Motor News is usually a good resource you might want to check. Nice auto, btw. It's a fairly easy to maintain and fun to drive. You should keep it!
