What think you? I might sell my 463 300GD for this... The only thing i notice is that the driver's arm rest is missing...

Hi armrest from MB Euro 380 with the matching cover...well used at 198000km.service history ""invoices"" would give you an indication of how well it has been looked after!!!

Looks like the first 463 i remember seeing with no front headlight washers...the wooden fascia inside looks unusual with no holes in it.

There are quite a lot early 463s here without headlight washers :shock: At £9500 seems a bit expensive but hey! It's a cabrio!

Thanks hus! Yeah... must say my 300GD is in a better state. What are the pros and cons for the cabrio in general?

"style over substance" Very reminiscent of a Jeep Wrangler particularly with the leather and the plastic hardtop, you will need to buy a cowboy hat :wink:

Re: Good cabrio deal??

you need the right weather for a start ! cabrio's arew fun and great looking with the roof off. but more of an occasional car when you compare with a lwb G.

hardtop is a great bonus though ! i cannot put up with the flapping soft top on a long trip, thats why i got the hardtop from fredcosse a few years ago. :wink:

but dont compare your lwb with any cabrio other than mine :wink: :wink:
