FOR SALE – 1985 Mercedes-Benz 380 SEC | Australian Delivered | Full Books & Service History
BERNIE SMITH CLASSIC CARS – PH 0418 399 392
A clean and well-maintained example of Mercedes-Benz’s flagship luxury coupé — the W126 380 SEC. Australian-delivered and complete with factory books, original manuals, and an extensive file of service receipts, this car represents a genuine and well-preserved classic from the golden era of Mercedes-Benz engineering.
Finished in Signal Red over cream leather trim, the car presents well throughout, with body and paint rated 8/10 and an interior showing age-related wear but remaining original and honest. If you were fussy, you could allow for some trim replacement for both front seats and rear parcel shelf, though overall it presents neatly for its age. The paintwork has been ceramic coated and professionally detailed, maintaining a deep, even gloss.
Mechanically, the car has been well cared for, with consistent maintenance performed by Mercedes-Benz specialists and all major components in sound order.
