1980 PRISTINE, ORIGINAL 450SE WITH ONLY 49000 MILES For Sale

Supplied new by Rivervale Mercedes, Reading on 02/ 05/ 80 to R. Ball & Co. Mr Ball ordered the car in Astral Silver with black checked cloth and specified the optional extras of, alloy wheels, electric sunroof, Blaupunkt stereo cassette, electric aerial and a passenger side wing mirror. Mr Ball had the first two services carried out by Rivervale after which he used Mercedes Great West Rd, London (near to his Chiswick offices) for the next ten services through to April 1995. The second owner was a Mr R. Bedall who took ownership on 07/ 07/ 95. Mr Bedall used the car sparingly, kept it dry stored and regularly serviced throughout the 21 years of his ownership. I bought the car exactly a year ago from Mr Bedall for my small personal collection. During my ownership I've had renowned classic Mercedes experts Roger Edwards go through the car and attend to any detail that was amiss. The last service was in March of this year. Nothing has been spared and the car works and drives perfectly. This W116 is known to be one of the best in the country due to being exceptionally well cared for during the last 37 years. Included with the car are all of the handbooks, service book, build data card, wallet, sales invoice, sales brochure, first aid kit, toolkit, original stereo and 19 old MOT's. At less than half the price of a W116 6. 9 and not a lot less performance, the 450SE makes a lot of sense. The 450SE didn't win Car of the year in 74 for no reason. Viewing in Knightsbridge.
