1996 Mercedes-Benz SL500 Base Convertible 2-Door 5.0L

This is a nice 20 year old lady that needs some tlc. can still dance on the interstate well above speed limit with no problem and about 30mpg! I drive from Naples to east coast with great fuel economy and safety. AC will freezes the testicles off a brass monkey. Good sound system for its time. easily converted to what you like. or desire. The maroon color is quite rare(only 216. 00 of this model made from about 1988 to 2003 ). mostly red. I have one of those if you like to buy one. If you want a safe and efficient car for a young drive. this one will take care of your loved ones. from air bags all around to a roll bar weighing at about 4500 pounds. offers good protection from the headless drivers. my other choice is medium weight tank. . e. . low center of gravity. but loads of horsepower to get away from trouble. Please remember she is almost 20. but a spirit of a new born at $120. 00. I have most of the original books but no shop manuals. Tires are ok about 50% left. oil is about 4-5000 from change. I have never had the hard top off but I do not see any leaks from the lift system. but I do not know about hydraulic roof system. I do have a picture of the space beneath the hydraulic pump
