1988 Mercedes-Benz 560SL

• Dark blue paint is deep and glossy with straight panels in strong sunlight, no paint or panel work showing.
• Chrome bumpers and trim are bright and the flat-face wheels are clean, no rechroming or wheel-refurb bill visible.
• Grey leather seats look excellent, smooth with minimal creasing, no need to reupholster.
• Door cards, dash and burl wood console all look clean and uncracked, and the original Becker radio is still fitted, so the cabin needs no trim spend.
• The odometer photo reads 46,744 miles, which matches the tidy condition of the leather and pedal area, though photos alone cannot verify mileage history.
• Trunk is carpeted and clean with no staining or rust showing around the opening.
• Every exterior photo is shot top-down on grass, so the car is never shown with the soft top raised or the hardtop fitted.
• Can't judge the soft top — it is never shown raised in the sampled photos.
• Can't judge the engine bay — no under-hood photo appears in the sampled photos.
• Can't judge the underside — no undercarriage photo appears in the sampled photos, and the grass setting hides the rockers too.

Money: at $53,900 the paint, chrome and grey leather justify strong 560SL money, but with the top, engine bay and underside all unphotographed, the last of the value rests on an in-person check of exactly those three.
