Mercedes-Benz has been making their two-seat grand-tourer since 1954. SL stands for Super Leicht (Super Light), and this was indeed the case from the inception, particularly the model that started it all off, the 300SL Gullwing. The third generation (R107) SL had a spectacularly long production run from 1971 till 1989. This is a 1986 Mercedes-Benz 560 SL Roadster from California with 80,700 miles reported. The seller, who is the second owner purchased it as a fun summer car, and says that “whoever had this car before me was so meticulous, they kept everything they could!”. The car comes with the original owner’s manual and reportedly, the original keys too. It underwent a point-to-point inspection in September 2021 at which there was nothing to note, and comes with service records and maintenance receipts too. Would you like to be the third owner of this fine German boulevard cruiser?
The third-generation SL saw Mercedes-Benz design move from the curvy and bulbous to the more straight-edged language of the Seventies. For North America, the headlamps were four separate sealed-beam units and the longer bumpers mandated by US regulations. This 1986 Mercedes-Benz 560 SL Roadster wears a clean Arctic White suit and rolls on steel wheels with shiny chrome hubcaps. It’s got a black soft-top and the hard-top is included in the sale too. The interior features grey leather seats for up to four occupants, and a wood-trimmed, black-topped dash. The driver faces a trio of clean-faced dials that communicate speed, revs, fuel, engine coolant temperature, oil pressure and a fuel economy meter. A neat clock lives in the lower part of the rev counter dial. There’s automatic climate control for your comfort, and the radio is a modern Kenwood unit with USB, AUX and Bluetooth.
The R107 class came with a range of six and eight cylinder gasoline engines. A diesel was never offered. Due to US emissions regulations, the Euro-spec cars always had more power and torque. This 1986 Mercedes-Benz 560 SL Roadster comes with a 5.5L (335ci) V8 with Bosch fuel injection that puts out 227hp and 287lb.ft to the rear wheels via a four-speed 4G-TRONIC automatic transmission. Performance figures at the time claimed a zero-to-sixty sprint time of 7 seconds, and a top speed of 150mph.

The R107 series of the Mercedes-Benz SL-Class is one of the best contemporary classic cars to get your hands on. Made between 1971 and 1989, many changes were made to this evergreen grand tourer from Germany’s most popular luxury automaker. So, if you’d like to get your hands on a R107, try this 1989 Mercedes-Benz 560SL as your next (or first) classic car. It’s from the last year of R107 production and has covered merely 41,907 miles so far. The current owner also tells us that the car has received a recent oil change.
If you want a classic but relatively modern grand tourer that’s luxurious, comes with a V8, and is quintessentially Germanic, the Mercedes-Benz R107 SL series ticks all the boxes. Produced between 1971 and 1989, over 300,000 were made and sold all over the world. North Americans loved these cars, especially the rich and famous. It wasn’t uncommon to see a celebrity driving around in one of these during the ’70s and ’80s. Today, you can get yourself a slice of R107 action with this lovely 1987 Mercedes-Benz 560SL Convertible that’s available from our inventory. The car has an original 19,000 miles on the clock and is reportedly an all-original car.
It is often said that life was better in the ʼ80s. Music, clothes, and of course, cars. This 1989 Mercedes 560SL is a car that could take you through time. Kept in pristine condition, this car is ready to stretch its legs having covered a reported 53,208 miles in its 36-year life. With the name having been around for 70 years, it's safe to assume that Mercedes knows what they’re doing.
One of the smartest classic cars to own and drive on a regular basis has got to be a Mercedes-Benz SL from the R107 generation of 1971 to 1989. These cars were Hollywood darlings when they were new, and over 300,000 were sold worldwide. It’s estimated that 68% of these ended up in the United States, as official or gray market imports. That’s why getting your hands on one isn’t that hard. This Florida-based 1975 Mercedes-Benz 450SL is one great example. The car has got 86,100 miles under its belt, and has received some new components to keep it driving as sweetly as it did back when it was new.
For decades, the Mercedes-Benz C-Class has represented the entry point into Mercedes-Benz ownership, as the prolific German luxury automaker’s compact luxury car offering. Over the years, the C-Class has grown, both in terms of sheer size, as well as luxury features and of course, performance. AMG got their mitts on the C-Class as well, resulting in some super-saloons that can really take everyone else by surprise. This W205-generation 2019 Mercedes-Benz C63 AMG is one of those super-saloons that’s been fettled by AMG. With just under 30,000 miles to its name, this Florida-based car is reportedly all stock and comes with up-to-date servicing. If you’re in search of a fast family hauler, here’s the ideal candidate.
One of the most legendary members of the Mercedes-Benz E-Class lineage is the W124 generation. This generation came about in 1984, and was made until 1995 as a sedan. Other variants carried on until as late as 1997. The W124 is widely considered to be one of the most solidly-engineered Mercedes-Benz models; it’s not uncommon to see them being used as taxis in some African countries to this day, braving elements such as desert sand, scorching temperatures and of course, limited availability of spare parts. We did get the W124 in the United States as well, and today, we’ve got a nice 1992 Mercedes-Benz 300D from Virginia for sale. This car has got 131,410 miles on the odometer, but that’s a mere stroll for a W124. You really should buy it because it’s a car that will become a classic very soon; yet is modern enough to drive around regularly. The car is said to be all-stock and has received a recent service.
