In the late Sixties, Mercedes-Benz knew that it was time to replace their iconic W114 line-up of grand touring coupes. Development started on a successor, and by 1971, the R107 and C107 generation was released. It bore the name SL, and in the case of the R107, came with a removable hardtop plus a soft top. Meanwhile, the C107 was a fixed-head coupe. The R107 in particular would prove to be a massive success. In total, over 237,000 R107 variants were made between 1971 and 1989. Today, an R107 represents a sound and safe way to get into classic cars, as it’s built tough and can keep going on and on when properly maintained. That’s why we’re glad to offer this 184,122-mile 1972 Mercedes-Benz 450SL from Sandy, Utah for sale today. Its mileage is proof that not only is this a car that can eat up long distances, but it’s also one that encourages you to drive it more and more.
Exterior and Interior
This 1972 Mercedes-Benz 450SL sports a silver paint job, and since it’s a North American market car, comes with features such as elongated safety bumpers and twin sealed beam headlamps per side. It’s got a dark blue convertible soft top, and we also see that the color matched hardtop is present too. This is great, since you’re basically getting two cars in one stylish package. The interior of this 1972 Mercedes-Benz 450SL comes in black, and, unusually for a North American market car, includes the small rear seat bench as well, which was typically the preserve of European market cars. The car’s interior shows signs of wear, which is to be expected given its mileage, but nothing appears torn or broken. You’ve also got a nice Pioneer radio with cassette tape player that’s a time capsule and a delight to classic audio gear aficionados. The car seems to have air conditioning, too. Behind the passenger cabin lies a decent-sized trunk despite the need for space to stow the car’s canvas soft top.
Engine
Under the hood sits Mercedes-Benz’s M117 4.5-liter naturally aspirated V8, equipped with Bosch D-Jetronic electronic fuel injection—an advanced system for its time. This V8 delivers smooth, torque-rich power rather than high-rev theatrics, perfectly suited to the 450 SL’s grand touring mission. Power is routed through a 3-speed automatic transmission to the rear wheels, providing relaxed acceleration and effortless cruising. The engine bay retains a factory-correct layout, highlighting the mechanical honesty and overbuilt nature that defined Mercedes-Benz engineering in the 1970s. This powertrain combination helped establish the 450 SL as a benchmark for luxury convertibles and remains a key reason why early R107 models continue to be so well regarded today.
