Selling A Classic Mercedes?

Some of the most-favored and sought after classic Mercedes-Benz automobiles are the supercharged pre-war era cars, and Mercedes convertibles into the late 1960s early 70s. The SL-Class grand tourer, manufactured since 1954, is the Sport Lightweight model. Numerous variations within the SL line can be found including engine configurations.

“I called, described the car, took pictures, provided the Vin and title information and they got back to me in 24 hours. We agreed on a price, signed paperwork. They sent the money directly to my bank and they picked up the car the next day. Whole process took maybe 4 days. They have it down and are very professional.”

“My experience with the Alex Manos company was very positive. Things moved very fast after our initial contact. Their requests for information and pictures were reasonable and were easy to provide. They responded quickly with an initial offer and negotiations were finalized in a couple days. Once we had agreement, payment arrived in my bank account the next day; before they had received the title from me or picked up the car. That showed was very professional and demonstrated a trust in me which I appreciated. All my needs were met.”
