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.

“This was the second time I had the pleasure to deal with Alex Manos and his very professional team. I felt we came upon a price which was fair, and the expedient way these people handled payment and transportation was excellent. He has a great team of people who kept me in the loop and answered any questions. I will be contacting him again next time I feel it is time to say goodbye to one of my old friends. ”
“This was the smoothest transaction I have gone through, period. Within 24 hours of reaching out to Alex, we agreed on a price, money arrived in my account within two hours, arranged for pick up and delivered to transporter the next morning. This is a top notch organization and easy to recommend.”
“I had owned a MB 280SL for 16 years as an investment and decided it was time to sell. My internet search found Alex. After providing a few pictures and telephone discussion he purchased this car for my asking price. All transactions were completed as discussed in a timely manner. I would highly recommend Alex as a good resource for selling your car.”
“Great Experience! Alex gave me a good price and I could not have asked for an easier, more professional transaction. Thank you!!”
“Thanks to the everyone at Alex Manos.com. This team of people are very responsive and handled the business transaction seamlessly! I highly recommend this skilled group of individuals. Best of luck with everything you do.”
“I called Alex to see if he could recommend a price I could sell my 1968 280SL MB. I was looking for an appraisal. He stated he wanted to see pictures. After he saw the pictures he made me a fair cash offer. The transaction was completed in the same day. The money was delivered, I deposited it in my bank, and the car was transported to Alex. I’m very satisfied.”
“Alex was polite and to the point. Not a lot of time to come to an agreement. Only issue was with the transportation people which was not his fault. I only got an hour and half notice before they were to arrive. They were efficient and did a good job however.”
“Over a 30 year span in the collector car hobby this was by far the smoothest transaction I’ve ever experienced, either selling or buying. If I could give Alex and his staff 10 stars, I would.”
