Background Story of this 1984 Mercedes-Benz 280SL

Overview of 1984 Mercedes-Benz 280SL For Sale by Owner

The Mercedes-Benz SL-Class is renowned for being one of the finest grand tourers that you can buy. A grand tourer is a car that’s meant to offer effortless long-distance cruising abilities, with a healthy dose of performance and plenty of luxury. Clearly aimed at the well-off, these cars are status symbols and icons of success, too. Take the R107 Mercedes-Benz SL-Class as a prime example. You’ve probably seen this model in countless movies and sitcoms from the Seventies and Eighties. Hollywood’s love affair with the R107 is well-known, with many stars of the period choosing to buy and drive one as well. Of course, the R107 was well-received in its home country of Germany too. This is one such example: a 1984 Mercedes-Benz 280SL that’s reportedly been imported from Germany. The car is said to have 95,000 miles on the clock and a recent oil change, plus some mechanical refreshments.

Exterior and Interior

The first thing that’ll strike you about this navy blue 1984 Mercedes-Benz 280SL is its lack of the more common North American-style elongated bumpers. Since the car is a German import, it comes with the sleeker slimline bumpers that other markets, including Germany, got. Furthermore, you’ve got a matching hard top as well as a soft top, so this is truly an all-season car. The interior of this 1984 Mercedes-Benz 280SL is another indicator that this isn’t an American-market car because you’ve got two small rear seats as well. American market cars replaced this with a padded luggage storage area to augment the car’s decently sized trunk. Other features of note include dual-zone climate control with air conditioning and a Becker Mexico radio cassette player. There’s another distinctive feature that you may have noticed, but we’ll talk about that in the next section.

Engine

Under the hood lies a smooth 2.8-liter six-cylinder powerplant, factory rated for around 182hp and 176lb-ft. But the car’s most defining feature is something that reportedly wasn’t offered in North America: a five-speed manual gearbox! Yes, you’ll most likely have noticed this in our interior pictures. The engine uses Bosch K-Jetronic mechanical fuel injection. Other highlights include independent front and rear suspension, recirculating ball power-assisted steering, and front plus rear power-assisted disc brakes.
