\"Dr Max Lovejoy\" - LOW RESERVE


Dr Lovejoy is the most beautiful classic Mercedes sedan I have ever seen.


SHE IS ALL ORIGINAL! - Watch Videos Please


Not a dealer \"low milage\" repainted car with aftermarket wheels as I see in another listing here.


This car is a time capsule. Original. Bright metallic silver original paint with a black interior in as new condition.


The car is a one owner vehicle with complete service records. Documented freeway miles.


Used as a commuter from Los Angeles to Las Vegas vacation home by a Delta Airlines pilot who brought the car up to 99k miles then stored it in his Vegas garage and bought another Mercedes diesel.


The vehicle has Nevada Historical Vehicle Plates.


Excellent Carfax.


The price on the car is based on the rarity, condition, color, miles, original wheels, service records and Nada and Hagerty valuation guide.

This is a museum quality collectible motor car.

You will not see one as clean as this. It doesn\'t get any better.

First year of production built in nov 1980 and rolled out of the factory in Germany as a special order to be shipped to California.


It is a California car with no rust, in fact the car has only seen rain only a few times in its entire life!
