Built between 1971 and 1989, the Mercedes-Benz R107 SL is a well and truly established member of the classic car club. These distinctive convertibles have classic styling and timeless Mercedes-Benz design cues. Legendary German build quality makes this model one of the most usable modern classics money can buy. A good example with an original factory hardtop will give year round driving.
This splendid Mercedes-Benz 500 SL is finished in red with a contrasting tan interior, a recently replaced black soft top and is supplied with a matching factory hardtop and stand.
