YOU ARE BIDDING ON A 1989 MERCEDES 420 SEL WHITE ON TAN

This is a LOW RESERVE Auction, SELL AS IS, No Warranty.

Please Read Before You Bid and Ask any question, if any, before you bid.

The car is in a very nice condition as a twenty years old car. Body is straight no dent as seen in the photo. Engine is strong, the transmission is fine and sunroof works. All lights and radio/antenna work. All switeches work. Power mirros work. All power windows work except right rear one. Sometimes the glass panel does not hold where scotch tape is used to hold it. The power motor works fine though. The interiors are also in nice condition. Leather seats and all panels are fine except a small tear in driver side as seen in the photo. Dash board, hood, wood trim are in very nice condition, no crack. The cell phone as shown is not activated though.

The engine vibrates when starting cold, but then runs smooth after warming up. The AC compressor seems to be seized up. May need to be flushed and cleaned up, or replaced.

It is an ideal car, at a very low cost, offering best physical protection for new drivers. It is a great daily commute car as well. I bought this car Mar2009 for my pre-college kid who just got his permit then license. He attends college in the east coast and does not need the car any more. That is why I am selling it. I have another MBZ for 20 years since new and am sure it can go for another 20 years with proper care.

Payment

A $500.00 none refundable deposit is due within 24 hours of end of auction. The remainder is due within 3 days of auction end. Cash or PayPal only for payment toward that none refundable deposit. Cash, PayPal and cashier check for the remainding balance payments, no exception. Pick-up/Delivery can be made right after full payment is made. We reserve the right to re-list the vehicle or sell it to the next highest bidder if the winner bidder does not pay on time. Please make sure your funding is ready prior to bidding. Winning bidder must contact us within 24 hours of auction end, and make arrangements for payment at that time.

Shipping

Buyer is responsible for pickup and/or shipping arrangement. I would prefer a local pick-up only. I am in San Diego area and may make delivery in the same area. Other than that, no shippment of any kind is offered. No exception. If you wish to use shipping service, we will be glad to coordinate with them for them to pick up the vehicle. The full payment is to be made before the pick-up, of course.
