About this car
This 1979 450SEL is offered on eBay by beverlyhillscarclub in Los Angeles, CA. The asking price is $8,950. The car is finished in Gray Blue Metallic, an automatic gearbox. The listing does not state a mileage. On a W116, rust in the sills, floor edges and around the front and rear screens is the main concern.
What the photos show
- light blue paint is glossy and even all round with no rust or peeling seen, so no paint money on what is shown
- photos are watermarked Beverly Hills Car Club stock 19154, a different car from the brown stock 19553 listed alongside it
- the rear badge reads 450 SEL, matching the title
- blue leather front and rear seats look excellent with no tears or heavy wear, so no reupholster money
- the center console radio and climate unit is missing with wiring hanging out, so budget a replacement unit and electrical sorting
- dash wood is glossy and the dash top looks uncracked, so no dash money beyond the console unit
- the trunk spare well has one heavily rusted loose panel and rust spots in the corners, so budget a small trunk rust repair
- the engine bay is clean and complete with tidy wiring, so no obvious engine money shows in photos
- the underside looks solid with clean floors and a newer-looking exhaust, so no underside money is visible
- the odometer photo shows 138,740 miles
Money: at $8,950 this is the clean one of the pair in the photos; the spend is the missing console unit and minor trunk rust, so the price looks fair for a tidy W116.
