Vehicle details

Notes and observations recorded by Hagerty staff.

Equipment

Wide whitewalls, origil pushbutton radio. A tired old cosmetic restoration with quick paint now micro blistered. Scratched chrome, curled carpets, loose left door panel. Clean but tired and never restored underhood. Solex carbs. A barely presentable driver. No Reserve.

Market commentary

Sold by Christies here a year ago for $35,250 and none the better for the passage of time even though the odometer shows twenty fewer miles. The seller should be very happy to get this much for this neglected and disappointing 190SL.
