Sorry - those 70s Mercs are ugly ugly ugly. And as for that being a convertible - sounds like it's been messed around with. And 3 speed auto? Yeah, sure the thing's pretty torquey but not Mercedes' finest - just a smidge over 200hp from 5 litres? They got that from their 3 litre sports car in the 1950s. What is that, 60mph in like 8 seconds for, what, 15mpg? It sounds about 3000quid's worth

Yeah, the fuel inefficiency relative to delivered performance really puts me off. Also, gray market cars from that era could have all kinds of electrical problems.

The gray market cars typically have fewer electronics than the US equivalents.

@mrkiplingreallywasanexceed8311 Holy crap. That’s a long handle. Do you like the aesthetics of any old Mercedes’? The 450slc 5.0 got its reputation for durability in the endurance rally races. Yeah. Mine is no racer. Mercedes quit rally racing when they weren’t guaranteed the ability to win with the 500sl rally car that was built but apparently never raced. Things are often unique because not enough people wanted them. I get it. 240 HP and 0-60 at a snail’s pace. Well, please find me a better 5 seat convertible, the reason I bought this car.
