The R107 generation of the Mercedes-Benz SL is becoming quite the desirable classic car, as there are examples from its inception in 1971 right up to its last production year of 1989 to consider. Throughout the R107's production span, observable progress and meaningful improvements can be realized. That doesn't mean that early models are any less special, but many tend towards a later-model example, such as this 1985 Mercedes-Benz 380SL we've got for sale right now. Don't let its 91,000 miles put you off, as the current owner reports quite a bit of refurbishment and replacement work has been done on it.
Wearing lovely blue paintwork, this 1985 Mercedes-Benz 380SL is a sight for sore eyes wherever you choose to drive it. Purists will appreciate the finer details, such as the original alloy wheels, fog lamps, and US-market-specific headlamps plus elongated bumpers. You also receive a hard top, as well as a soft top, with the sale of this car. The windshield wipers have received new blades to ensure excellent wiping characteristics in pouring rain. Said to be the original interior, the current owner reports that the air conditioning has received a recent servicing and new refrigerant, which is nice for those living in warmer climes. The cabin is a two-seat affair in tan, with a luggage shelf behind the seats, augmenting the car's generous trunk. There's also a Becker Grand Prix radio with a cassette tape player, albeit reportedly nonfunctional. The current owner reports a new antenna has been installed.
Sporting a 3.8L V8 that was rated for 155hp and 196lb-ft, this 1985 Mercedes-Benz 380SL isn't going to win at the local drag strip, but that's not its raison d'etre. Rather, it's meant to be a stylish and easygoing cruiser, with its 4-speed automatic transmission sending power to the rear wheels in a smooth fashion. The current owner reports that the engine has received an oil change. Further work done is said to include new fuses, a new fan motor, new water pump and radiator hoses, and a new thermostat. The current owner also tells us that the car has new brake pads and rotors.
There’s an interesting trend taking place in North America, where youngsters are starting to discover the allure of classic cars. Perhaps its their rather more appealing color palette, the fond talk that they’ve heard about classics from their elders, or the desire to diverge from the herd of soulless electric cars that are being thrust upon us. In fact, one of the most interesting classic car choices with Gen Z is starting to become the Mercedes-Benz R107-series SL-Class! Produced between 1971 and 1989, over 200,000 came to North America, and they’re sturdy cars, let us tell you. We’ve helped so many examples find new owners that we can safety say that these are built to last if cared for appropriately. So, if you’re a parent (or a youngster) who’s looking for their first classic, check out this 1985 Mercedes-Benz 380SL Roadster from New Hampshire. With its V8 engine, timeless styling and relatively low 72,137 miles, it’s a great choice.
Nothing says “old money” like an 80s Mercedes convertible. This fine example is a testament to that statement. The R107 SL Class was in production for nearly 2 decades between 1971 and 1989 (reportedly selling an incredible 300,000 units), and the 380SL was made in the early 80s. In the US market, it replaced the 450SL and was succeeded by the 560SL. It was essentially a 2-seater convertible version of the S Class, providing a delightful combination of driving pleasure and luxury. The S Class frequently gets credit for being the world leader in technological innovation, but few know that the SL was also a very influential model; inertia-reel seatbelts, though now standard on every car, were developed for and debuted in the R107 SL, with its comfort and safety advantages making it an industry trend quickly. Being an 80s Mercedes, the most important thing about this car is the unbeatable quality of engineering.
Do you want to own and drive a contemporary Mercedes-Benz model that’s a timeless icon, and has definite classic value? If so, consider an example of the Mercedes-Benz R107 SL-Class. Produced between 1971 and 1989, the R107 embodied Hollywood in more ways than one. It was a darling of the silver screen, as well as a hot item for actors and actresses to drive around in. Now, it’s a well-recognized classic car, and one that’ll only appreciate in value as the earliest examples have passed their fiftieth birthdays. Meanwhile, this 1981 Mercedes-Benz 380SL isn’t at the Fifty mark yet, but it’s a lovely example to cherish. With 135,000 miles on the clock, you can tell that it’s led an enjoyable life, but there’s plenty more to give. After all, Mercedes-Benzes of this ilk can go on forever with the right maintenance and TLC – and this car has reportedly had all its maintenance done, up to date.
Love it or hate it, the Mercedes-Benz G-Class is a formidable off-roader and one that comes with impressive capabilities straight from the factory. While other so-called toughie off-roaders need to head straight for the aftermarket tuners to be turned into trail beasts, all your typical G-Class needs is to change its footwear for something a bit more suited to rough terrain. The same rings true for this 2009 Mercedes-Benz G55 AMG from Waterbury, Connecticut. Coming from the W463 first series that ran between 1990 and 2018, it’s a superbly swift family carrier that can easily cut it across diverse forms of ground – be it sand, snow, rocks, mud, you name it. Perhaps not lava, but hey, don’t say we didn’t warn you.

The Aston Martin DB9: a car that was so well-designed it stayed in production for 12 years, and continues to impress over 2 decades after its launch. In 2004, it took over the DB line from the outgoing DB7. While it’s predecessor was often criticized as being a Jag XJS in a fancy dress, the DB9 was developed as a fresh car (in fact, there is some speculation that Aston Martin avoided calling it the DB8 to distinguish it even more from its predecessor). The convertible version was named the DB9 Volante and debuted in September 2004 with softer suspension than the coupe and extra reinforcement to protect the occupants in case of a rollover incident.
BMW’s 8-Series was first introduced in 1990 as a sleek and angular luxury coupe. With its eye-catching design and excellent aerodynamics, the first-generation 8-Series was also the world’s first production car to pair a V12 engine with a 6-speed manual transmission. Offered exclusively with either a V8 or a V12, the 8-Series represented the pinnacle of BMW’s grand touring capability — a blend of power, luxury, and innovation that still defines the brand’s heritage. Presented here is a 1997 BMW 840Ci from Key Largo, Florida — a low-mileage example showing fewer than 32,000 miles. Under its long hood lies the more economical yet still exciting 4.4L V8 engine, delivering smooth, effortless performance. If you’re looking for a stylish grand tourer that’s both a collector-grade classic and a comfortable daily driver, this 840Ci perfectly fits the bill.
