Selling A Classic Mercedes?
Some of the most-favored and sought after classic Mercedes-Benz automobiles are the supercharged pre-war era cars, and Mercedes convertibles into the late 1960s early 70s. The SL-Class grand tourer, manufactured since 1954, is the Sport Lightweight model. Numerous variations within the SL line can be found including engine configurations. The first generation of SL, both the Mercedes-Benz 300SL and 190SL, had their start in 1954.
Until 1963 1.9 and 3.0L, four speed manuals were produced. There were over 25,000 four cylinder 190SL Mercedes sold. If you buy or sell classic Mercedes you’ll find both coups, removable hardtops, and convertible soft tops.

The second generation was offered as a four speed automatic or manual transmission as well as a five speed manual. The engine sizes were 2.3, 2.5, or 2.8. The 230SL had big curved windows and a distinctive roofline. Around 1967 the 230SL became known as the 250SL. The engine was displaced and increased again until it became the 280SL, a favorite vintage Mercedes.

“Valarie was most supportive and helpful in taking me thru the process of selling my 1984 Mercedes Benz. I found her to be very professional, straightforward and upfront with me. From the time I called and Tina took my initial call Valarie was there to answer any questions I had and the transaction ran smoothly. Her help was greatly appreciated.”
“Sold my car that I held for 50 years. Wasn’t sure how to sell it when I found Alex Manos. I filled in a form and submitted some photos and a few minutes later my phone rang and it was Alex! We talked and arrived at a price and two days later they picked up the car. And I sadly watched as by 50-year companion moved on to California. The process went smoothly and now have an open spot in my garage.”
“Easy to deal with, polite interactions, explained process simply. Alex and his team did everything they said they would do, when they said they would do it. The whole process was simpler than my local dealerships. Definitely a pleasure to work with. Highly recommend them.”
“I was very impressed with the professionalism and extremely efficient operations provided to me on the sale of my 1957 Mercedes Benz 190SL. Alex Manos was a pleasure to deal with. He handled the sale, the extremely fast wire transfer to my account followed by professional pick-up of vehicle from my home residence. I am extremely happy with how quickly this transaction was handled.”
“I just sold my 2003 Mercedes Benz SL 55 AMG to Alex after owning it for 19 years. Many of my Friends recommended Adds or Bring a Trailer, but that worried me and it sounded like asking for trouble.I came across on the internet with one of Alex ads for Porsche cars and decided to call to see if he would be interested in my Mercedes, I spoke to him personally and he said Yes! Best decision I have made selling a car instead of trading in at dealers or selling by owner. The whole process was easy, fair, fast and efficient. I would highly recommend dealing with Alex and his staff. In fact, I was so satisfied that I will call him first, when I decide to sell my 1984 Porsche 911 Carrera coupe. Forget Bring a Trailer!”
“Service people were kind, and knowledgeable through my first contact through the vehicle pickup. Thank you.”

Alex has assembled the best in car buying/selling, A definite 5-star organization! The driver who picked up my car on time and loaded carefully, for the next new owner, I had lots of fun with my car, now time for new owner to enjoy the drive. Thank you Alex!!”
