Overview of 1985 Mercedes-Benz 380SE For Sale by Owner

The Mercedes-Benz S-Class needs no introduction. It’s widely regarded as the most well-known and technologically-equipped mainstream luxury car in the world, before you venture into Rolls-Royce and Bentley territories (and their accompanying stratospheric price tags). Today’s 1985 Mercedes-Benz 380SE is from the second generation of S-Class, also known as the W126 in Mercedes-Benz circles. This Florida-based sedan has just over 67,000 miles on it, but can easily treble that number with the proper maintenance. Hence, it’s a great way to get into luxury classic cars that aren’t too old, but have some modern comfort features and decent performance to offer.

Exterior and Interior

This 1985 Mercedes-Benz 380SE wears a two-tone gold and brown paint job, which really accentuates its timeless lines, the work of legendary Mercedes-Benz designer Bruno Sacco. The car bears a simple yet attractive set of silver alloy wheels, and also comes with a rear deck lid spoiler for a hint of sportiness. The twin tailpipes at the rear also hint at the same, but much of this car’s purpose is to be a comfortable, long-distance cruiser. Of course, with its suitably sizable proportions, which aren’t quite land yacht but not compact car either, this car isn’t meant for hustling around corners in a frenzied fashion. Rather, it’s more suitable to swift yet smooth driving on highways and flowing roads. The interior of this car offers spacious seating for up to five adults, in characteristic Eighties brown and of course, made from leather. The car comes with features such as power windows, power-adjustable front seats, automatic climate control, power mirrors, a powered radio antenna and cruise control. Rear-seat passengers also receive air vents for their comfort. Meanwhile, a Becker radio with cassette tape player occupies the lower part of the center console, and is, in its own right, a highly desirable piece of automotive audio equipment.

Engine

Powering this 1985 Mercedes-Benz 380SE is a 3.8-liter naturally aspirated V8 with Bosch mechanical fuel injection. Mercedes-Benz literature informs us that the car packed 201hp and 232lb-ft of torque, fed to the rear wheels via a 4-speed automatic gearbox. Braking is via ventilated discs with anti-lock braking, and the car has received new ball joints as well.
