Vehicle description
Need some fresh air privacy, lots of fun, and a break from COVID? How about a year round car with a soft and hard top? Air conditioner blows cold. Quite a good 1997 Mercedes Roadster R129 model running well, top working fine, nice new tires and new Alpine and new speakers. 225 HP gets down the road. Adult west coast owned since production. A real classic design, in product more than 20 years, built in Germany. Pre- Chrysler influence, quality and craftsmanship. If you understand these roadsters, 1997 was of the best last years for the R129. The motor, considered indestructible, has a very long production history, hence, reliability. I couldn’t pass up an offer on a 2009 SL 550 AMG, so you get my really loved 1997 Roadster. Strong clean running engine, good tight 5 speed automatic shifts. Paint, near mint. Canvas top, good. Center plastic window, good. Side windows, need updating and replacement. I bought the marine grade vinyl to do it, you can have the supplies, and DYI or get help. Good clean hardtop. Top and roll bar and window automation all working correctly. The tires, new, are Goodyear Eagles. (I don’t buy cheap), brakes are fine. Steers tight. Tire rods check in May when tires were mounted. Undercarriage and exhaust no rust. My view of issues: Two side windows. Mend or replace (supplies with car). Drives seat, leather crack, not trashed. Top chrome frame has light erosion from California beach salt spray, does not effect functions of top Stereo terrific. Phone by appointment 6:30 – 7:00 pm, Oregon Clear Title. Yes,…drive anywhere. (New Tires, oil just changed) Ships about 800-1250 west of Miss. About 2800 to Europe.
