1981 Mercedes-Benz 380 SL Roadster

Finished in elegant Wheat Beige with a tan leather interior, this 1981 Mercedes-Benz 380 SL Roadster is a beautiful and increasingly collectible classic. Powered by a V8 engine paired with an automatic transmission, this SL starts easily, runs smoothly, and drives exceptionally well. The car has been partially restored and is ready to be enjoyed.

Showing approximately 145,000 miles, the body is in very good condition overall with only minor signs of age. There is a small rust spot on the lower front fender, as shown in the photos, but otherwise the car presents very nicely. The tan soft top is in excellent condition and complements the exterior color perfectly.

Mechanically, this 380 SL is strong and dependable. The engine runs quietly, delivers smooth power, and performs exactly as it should. The automatic transmission shifts smoothly through all gears with no known issues.

This is not a restoration project. It is a solid, enjoyable driver that can be driven and enjoyed immediately. While the interior could benefit from some minor cosmetic attention, it remains presentable and retains its classic charm.
