1978 Mercedes-Benz SL SLC review from North America

"Great"

What things have gone wrong with the car?

The car does idle high, but in drive the idle kicks down.

The seats are a little loose.

There's some rust on the outside of the car.

General comments?

A very nice car. Overall I would get another one; I just wish that the parts were not so expensive.
