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.

“My experience with Alex Manos was very good. Alex responded quickly, he handled the deal fast, precise, and in a professional manner. In my opinion Alex is on top of his game here, good communication made my deal seamless.”
“The simplest sale that I’ve ever had. Sent in some photos, was given a price that I liked, and bam, the 190SL was sold and picked up. Couldn’t have been any easier for my needs. Thanks Alex!”
“Shawn from Lodi N.Y. I had never sold a car without a face-to-face transaction until I called Alex. I am happy to do business with him and will give him a call next time I acquire a classic.”
“I had a 1963 Mercedes 220SEb Coupe which had been sitting in my garage for almost 30 years. It had a cracked oil ring and needed a ring job along with other repairs. I finally decided that I would never get around to fixing it and decided it was time to sell it. In checking around for options, I came across Alex’s site and sent him some pictures. He called me in about 20 minutes and we talked about the car for a while. He asked me what I wanted for it, to which I replied that I didn’t really know what it was worth. He made me an offer which I felt was very reasonable. I asked for 24 hours to think about it, called him back the next morning and accepted his offer. Everything went well, they had the car picked up within a few weeks. I was very pleased with the process and would recommend to anyone thinking of selling their classic car to give Alex a call. I’m sure you won’t be disappointed!”
“It was a very positive experience. It can be such a complicated experience to sell a car, but this transaction went as smooth as silk. The whole process, from initial contact to watching my car loaded into the transport, took just three painless days. I would highly recommend dealing with Mr. Manos”
“It was easy and a painless great experience.”
“Alex was incredibly responsive and a pleasure to work with. I cannot believe how fast and easy the whole process was! Thank you Alex!”
“I send info and photos of my vehicle, and the next day I received a call from Alex. We reached an agreement on the price and done, paperwork was sent with a check, and in couple of days, the car was picked up. Thank you Alex and Allison for making everything so easy and fast!”
