- VL Berlina
Hi, have a 1987 VL Berlina that’s in decent condition, does need to have the motor fixed up and paint, little rust repair, all the usual.
Would it be worthy doing a resto/clean up, and putting in the cash to get it resprayed, get the motor fixed up etc? Are Berlinas actually sought after and worth a bit? I’ve always seen people modifying SLs and always thought SLs and Calais are the two everyone wants? Would having a nice Berlina be worthy of my money?
It needs to get the head redone as it has a stuck valve and blown head gasket (any pointers to how much that’ll run me is appreciated)
Also needs to have the boot floor fixed up with rust, has slight bubbling on the roof next to the left back passenger window, and has some cracking behind the back glass, not sure if it’s under the window though. Other than that, it’s a complete car, interior is is great shape.
Any advice would be amazing.
