Further Information
The Car Barn are pleased to offer for sale this Mercedes-Benz 380SL.
It is finished in Thistle Green and has a light brown interior.
The car was previously owned by actor and entertainer John Barrowman and from owning it from 2007 to 2015 he did less than 1400 miles only using it for very special occasions. In 2009 he spent £8700 extensively restoring certain elements. Including a new replacement convertible roof and rust elimination/proof on the bodywork. This included:
Repair of corrosion to sills, rear wheel arches, lower front wings, lower section of the footwell/bulkhead.
New rear deck panel. Repainted the rear of the car, lower sections of the front wings, lower front valance and rear bumper valances.
Rust-proofed the car
Rebuilt the gearbox
Previously before John owned it it was owner by two owners of the same family in Poole Dorset. It was kept in a garage then too, especially during winter.
The car has a comprehensive service history with a large folder full of receipts and will be serviced again by the Car Barn prior to sale.
We have inspected the bulk head and have found it to be in good condition.
