bargain (?) 450SEL & 6.9

[Styria]

Two cars located on Car Point. The 450SEL referred to seems to be an absolute bargain, but it is located in Victoria - on the surface, it looks great

The other of real interest is the Magnetite Blue 6.9 that's been advertised previously on topklasse.

This car has had a lot of money spent on it, and is owned by a fastidious Mercedes Benz Club member in NSW. As the owner says, it has some paint issues evident on closer inspection, but it's been a very well maintained car.

Perfect colour combination!

 

[450SE]

The Milan Brown car has been for sale for quite some time. I did consider looking at it when I was looking for mine - but the advertised rust & ex-UK car did scare me enough to not even bother.

Perfect colour combination!

which one, professor (teacher) Magnetite Blue and Milan Brown,cum parchment/cream pretty good colour combinations, but every one's got them (sorry Prince of Arabia !) ...Why not....lemme see....petrol 877 and blue - yuk, what a mismatch but, some years ago (don't know when) did the Fashion World (Paris - Milan etc) come up with Blue and Green as the perfect colour match....ah well ! Regards Styria

N. B. In case no one knows, that's what I have in Gleaming Beauty. There !

Blue and Parchment...of course!

I've got the Milan brown, but 1978 and w/leather. The price seems too good to be true. And if that's the case, buyer beware. "Some rust" and body needs attention is car sales speak for possible serious and extensive work needed...

That 6.9 looks like great for the money. My favourite colour combination too.

As for the 450, a good inspection will reveal whether the rust is out of control. Unless that car was imported early in its life, the rust is probably significant. Lowish km, though.
