1986 Mercedes-Benz 280 SL

The Mercedes-Benz SL-Class legacy began in 1954, with the gorgeous 300SL Gullwing. Its breathtaking lines and exciting performance made it a real treat to behold. Mercedes-Benz followed up in 1963 with the W113, also known as the Pagoda due to its roof shape in hardtop form. This particular 1968 Mercedes-Benz 280SL is a convertible, however it does come with a nice little surprise too. It’s also a Euro-Spec version that was repainted around a decade ago. With about 60,000 miles to its name, this car is a great German classic for you to pick up and turn heads wherever you choose to take it. Because let’s face it, who doesn’t like a classic Mercedes-Benz? It’s the epitome of taste, after all.

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.

We've come a very long way since the 1960s, and so has the Mercedes Benz SL lineup. The modern Mercedes SL has air-conditioned seats, radar-guided cruise control, and a top speed of a couple of hundred miles an hour — all the stuff you need. But in terms of style, it's hard to beat the classic designs, such as our featured car. If you’re a classic car lover, you might look at everybody else going around in their air-conditioned euro boxes and just feel better off with a rolling piece of art that whispers stories of the past. For you, this 1980 Mercedes Benz 280SL Convertible from Virginia will suit you perfectly. It is reportedly imported from Europe and has 108,350 miles on it.

The Mercedes-Benz SL has enjoyed a distinguished place in automotive history, and the R107 generation remains one of the most celebrated luxury roadsters to emerge from Stuttgart. Produced from 1971 through 1989, the R107 became synonymous with sophisticated open-top motoring, exceptional engineering, and the understated elegance that defined Mercedes-Benz during the era. Introduced for the 1986 model year, the 560 SL became the flagship American-market version of the R107, bringing a larger 5.6-liter V8 and further refinements to an already accomplished grand tourer. This 1987 Mercedes-Benz 560 SL, showing 65,981 miles, is finished in Arctic White over a Palomino leather interior, complemented by a contrasting Dark Brown convertible soft top.

With its elegant color combination, naturally aspirated V8, and timeless R107 styling, this 560 SL offers an inviting opportunity to experience one of Mercedes-Benz's most enduring grand touring roadsters.

Mercedes-Benz has built the legendary G-Class into an automotive icon over more than four decades, but few versions are quite as outrageous as the AMG G 63 4x4².

The Pontiac Grand Prix became a defining name in American personal luxury motoring during the 1970s and 1980s, offering distinctive styling, V8 performance, and an abundance of comfort-oriented appointments.
