Have this car offered to me as trade in towards one of my Diablos...any thoughts on what it is worth...anyone looking for this car..?

1980 6.9 Mercedes
Mileage is still under 80K.
Car has original paint with a few flaws but car is well above average.
Original Becker radio, sheepskin covers, unused spare wheel, jack etc.
There is no rust on this example. It is an original California car.
It rides on MB 500SL16" alloys with 2 year old tires. Thread is good.
Had it serviced last May at a Mercedes/Porsche shop.
They did engine oil and filter and serviced cooling system.
FYI, car has a dry sump engine.

 

It all really depends, I'd say conservatively ~10-15k (RETAIL) unless its a pristine example like this

This is a close example with a little more miles

This one you should watch closely to see the result
EXCELLENT CONDITION Mercedes Benz 6.9 : eBay Motors (item 250592989337 end time Mar-14-10 22:42:46 PDT)

 

I'd bet $18-20K for it.

 

id say closer to 5 than 10...

the pics were taken 9 years ago?

 

<$15k

 

Yuk! Who would want that in the first place!

 

as long as he has 15 more pristine examples

Not my choice in colors, but LOVE the 6.9s . . .
