It's a car that looks more expensive than it is, and a Mercedes-Benz logo on the front signaling German class and reliability. The R107 generation of the Mercedes-Benz SL roadster really put the Stuttgart manufacturer on the map. Wondering why they were so popular? Here's one for you to try out.

Listen to some good old 80s hits with this car's Original Becker radio cassette with an auto antenna. The seller reports that the AC does not function, so that’s an area that needs attention.
