Summary
This Euro-market 1978 Mercedes-Benz 280S, with 111k miles, was driven by its late owner for over three decades after being imported to the US in 1984. It features a light tan interior with plaid inserts, a power sunroof, and an aftermarket AC, though the Becker head unit is not working. The exterior shows paint chips and oxidization, and it is being sold with a clean Nevada title, not having passed California smog.
