This beautifully presented, 31700 miles from new three owner car with full history has been driven to us by its owner of over 14 years. LFR 686W is a lovely, low mileage car with exceptional service history and comes with its original service book, manuals, spare keys, MOT’s dating back to its very first in 1983, and both excellent hard and soft tops. The SL was also ordered with the desirable rear seats option and was supplied new by Westwood Garage Limited in Blackburn, Lancashire to its first owner in Lytham St Annes who kept the car for 26 years with his personalised registration mark 8015 PW on the car. The car sold locally to its second owner in Southport in 2006, and in 2009 came into the hands of its most recent owner who is now based not far from us in Yorkshire. The supplying dealership Westwood Garage Ltd maintained the car for its first twenty years with services stamped in the book at 987, 4056, 9553, 11239, 13001, 14311, 16033, 17449, 24796, 25600, 26301, 27833 and 28118 miles. In 2001 the long term first owner had the car serviced with Mercedes Benz of Blackpool and for the final few years of ownership a local garage serviced the SL at 28635, 28885, 29104 and 29133 miles before selling the car in 2006. The recent owner has kept the SL in excellent order with regular maintenance, and in recent years has had the SL Shop carry out a re-commissioning program on the car. Servicing was carried out by independent garages at 30760, 31457 and 31501 miles but a major re-commissioning program was carried out by the SL Shop at 31181 miles in 2015 at a cost of around £4500. The SL had been dry stored for a couple of years prior to 2015 and the owner commissioned a major service, MOT and any recommended work to be carried out. Expenditure covered brand new tyres, refurbished steering box, stripping the differential and fitting new seals, new fuel tank link pipes, rear Bilstein shock absorbers, complete set of new fuses, engine and gearbox service, new soft top seal, wind deflector and new mohair hood. The SL has been serviced twice since the work even though it's covered little over 500 miles. LFR 686W has been kept in exceptional, sharp condition and used sparingly. It presents beautifully with stunning, gleaming paintwork and chrome, the bodywork is exceptional with first class straight panels and with gleaming period alloys, superb hard top and soft top, and a wonderful low mileage interior, this SL really does look the part. The interior boasts beautiful wood veneer finishes, lambswool over rugs, lovely carpets and excellent seats, door cards and dash. The boot compartment is well presented, the spare wheel looks unused and the engine bay is very well presented. On the road the SL drives correctly with impressive performance from the V8 engine, smooth gear changes and first class handling, road holding and braking. This is an exceptional low mileage car that does not disappoint and has the provenance of low ownership and a very comprehensive history from new.
