1979 Mercedes-Benz 450SEL

• light blue paint is glossy and even all round with no rust or peeling seen, so no paint money on what is shown
• photos are watermarked Beverly Hills Car Club stock 19154, a different car from the brown stock 19553 listed alongside it
• the rear badge reads 450 SEL, matching the title
• blue leather front and rear seats look excellent with no tears or heavy wear, so no reupholster money
• the center console radio and climate unit is missing with wiring hanging out, so budget a replacement unit and electrical sorting
• dash wood is glossy and the dash top looks uncracked, so no dash money beyond the console unit
• the trunk spare well has one heavily rusted loose panel and rust spots in the corners, so budget a small trunk rust repair
• the engine bay is clean and complete with tidy wiring, so no obvious engine money shows in photos
• the underside looks solid with clean floors and a newer-looking exhaust, so no underside money is visible
• the odometer photo shows 138,740 miles

Money: at $8,950 this is the clean one of the pair in the photos; the spend is the missing console unit and minor trunk rust, so the price looks fair for a tidy W116.
