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.
A glorious boulevard cruiser, this Smoke Silver Metallic 1987 Mercedes-Benz 560SL Convertible even comes with its color-matching hardtop for use during Wintertime or when the wet season beckons. The car also sports quintessentially ’80s Mercedes-Benz alloy wheels and wears new tires. It also has North American-mandated elongated safety bumpers and sealed-beam headlamps. The interior of this 1987 Mercedes-Benz 560SL Convertible is dark brown, with two leather-upholstered seats and a padded luggage area directly behind them. European-market cars did offer a small rear seat, but the SL is best enjoyed alone or with a close partner. The car also comes with cruise control, power windows, a leather-wrapped steering wheel with airbag, automatic climate control, and a Becker Grand Prix radio. This is fantastic because it’s relatively hard to find an ’80s Merc with the original Becker radio, and sourcing replacements can be costly.
Sporting a 5.6-liter V8 under the hood, this 1987 Mercedes-Benz 560SL Convertible will have been factory-rated for 227hp and 287lb-ft of torque. These are respectable figures, given that excessively stringent North American emissions standards were in force at the time. The engine uses KE-Jetronic multipoint fuel injection for smooth power delivery and reliable cold starting. It drives the rear wheels through a four-speed automatic transmission. You’ve also got MacPherson strut front independent suspension and diagonal swing-axle rear suspension with coil springs. Power-assisted disc brakes and recirculating ball power steering are also standard. All that remains is to buy this car and cruise off into the sunset…or sunrise…whatever floats your boat.
