Overview of 1986 Mercedes-Benz 560SL For Sale by Owner

Few grand tourers wear their age as gracefully as the 1986 Mercedes-Benz 560 SL, and this example captures the R107 formula in one of its most desirable late-production forms. Showing approximately 39,199 miles, it pairs a Signal Red exterior with a Palomino leather interior and Dark Brown convertible soft top, giving it the quintessential color combination many enthusiasts associate with the era. As the flagship U.S.-market R107, the 560 SL blended V8 power, understated luxury, and timeless styling into a roadster that remains one of Mercedes-Benz’s most recognizable classics.

Exterior and Interior

The exterior of this 1986 Mercedes-Benz 560 SL is finished in Signal Red, a vivid factory color that suits the clean, formal lines of the R107 particularly well. A Dark Brown convertible soft top provides a period-correct contrast, while the car’s chrome trim, upright grille, and long-hood proportions reinforce the elegant grand-touring character that defined the model. Details such as LED daytime running lights and all-around heat-insulating green glass add further usability without changing the car’s classic presentation. The interior of this 1986 Mercedes-Benz 560 SL is trimmed in Palomino leather, giving the cabin a warm, traditional Mercedes-Benz appearance. Equipment includes automatic climate control, a front folding armrest, rear audio system, and sun visors with additional function. The U.S.-specification instrumentation is calibrated in miles with English legends, while the cabin layout remains simple, solid, and unmistakably R107.

Engine

Powering this 1986 Mercedes-Benz 560 SL is a 5.6L naturally aspirated M117 V8 with Bosch KE-Jetronic continuous fuel injection, paired with a 4-speed automatic transmission and rear-wheel drive. The 560 SL sat at the top of the U.S. R107 range, and its larger-displacement V8 gave the car the smooth, effortless power delivery expected of Mercedes-Benz’s flagship roadster. Rather than chasing outright sports-car aggression, the drivetrain is tuned around refined torque and relaxed high-speed touring, which remains a major part of the model’s enduring appeal.
