I'd go see it.  Looks like the later 250 SL with Euro specs, hard door pocket, no side markers or bumper guards, etc.  244 pictures!  Is the girl included for a night?

Looks and sounds nice. No chrome strips on the rear quarters but otherwise  seems to be all there.
Best to take a look.

I think that hose clamp is just a little bit too tight  ::):

I would love to take a look, but am very far away. On top of that my 89 year Mother fell and broke 2 bones in her leg. So i need to stay near to home.

Under no circumstances should you consider this car without a knowledgable 113er looking at it.  Not a professional appraiser, but a 113 guy.

Have you looked at www.motoringinvestments.com
