1989 Mercedes-Benz 560SL

• black paint looks deep, glossy and swirl-light in the close-ups, no repaint money needed
• chrome bumpers and the polished wheels look bright, no re-chroming or wheel refurb bill here
• grey leather seats and door cards look clean with only light creasing, no retrim money needed
• dash and centre console look tidy with the wood strip intact, no dash repair money showing
• black soft top looks taut and clean, though the plastic side window is wavy, a small top-window niggle, not a new top
• engine bay looks clean and original with its stickers in place, no detailing spend needed
• the top well and boot floor metal look solid and freshly painted, no rust repair showing back there
• underneath tells a plainer story: surface rust spots on the exhaust and catalyst and a crushed, rusty front jacking point, so budget for exhaust and jack-point attention, not a full underside restoration
• the gallery ends with its CARFAX pages, which is paperwork, not condition, but it does tie the car to one VIN

Money: with no price listed, the top side needs almost nothing, so any discount should be argued from the underside rust spots and jacking point, not the paint or trim.
