Description

OFFERED WITHOUT RESERVE

The R107 generation of the Mercedes-Benz SL was available from 1971 until 1989, culminating in the range-topping 560 SL, only available to North American, Australian, and Japanese markets from 1986 to 1989. Boasting a 5.5-liter V8 engine paired with a smooth four-speed automatic transmission, the 560 SL featured a removable hard top or soft top, allowing this car to transform from a suave coupe into a wonderfully stylish roadster. This well-presented example would be an excellent addition for anyone looking to add a timeless Mercedes-Benz to their collection.

  • Original spare tire mounted on a matching factory wheel.
