About Hagerty’s condition ratings
Engine compartment is orderly but the engine idles at nearly 2,000 rpm. Older interior is sound but aged and lightly soiled. Bodywork and paint are awful. This is a scruffy 190SL that needs everything, and a lot of it.
Market commentary
The reported high bid, and the fact it didn't sell at it, indicates how far sellers' expectations for 190SL values are off the mark. This car will cost an easy $100K to put into proper shape and anything less than a full restoration will leave it a compromised car. It should have gone away at less than $50,000.
