Overview of 1987 Mercedes-Benz 560SL For Sale by Owner

With over 300,000 produced and two-thirds of that ending up in North America, the Mercedes-Benz R107 SL-Class is one of those success stories that must be told. The series ran between 1971 and 1989, and during that time, Mercedes-Benz made countless upgrades and updates. While American cars were burdened with lower power outputs and emission controls, European cars were able to better weather the storm as they were already being made to be frugal yet powerful. So, if you’d like to get your hands on a well-equipped, low-mileage R107, this 39,000-mile 1987 Mercedes-Benz 560SL from Hattiesburg, Mississippi is the right choice. With its V8 engine, 4-speed automatic gearbox and leather interior, this is old-school Mercedes-Benz luxury at its finest.

Exterior and Interior

Wearing a Champagne coat of paint, this 1987 Mercedes-Benz 560SL includes its removable hardtop as well. That’s great because you can install it during Wintertime and enjoy a proper metal roof, plus the associated weatherproofing and sound insulation that it offers. Then, when Summertime rocks round, remove the top and leave it at home. You’ll still have the security of a black convertible soft top when needed. This was one of many things that made the R107 a default choice for many buyers back then. Another factor was its timeless style that looks fresh to this day, its classic Mercedes-Benz alloy wheels, and of course its iconic Star on the grille. The interior of this 1987 Mercedes-Benz 560SL features burgundy leather upholstery and is rather interesting too. Most US-market cars came with a padded cargo area behind the front seats, while European market cars got two small rear seats by default. This car has got those seats! The car also has automatic climate control, cruise control, a power antenna and a period correct Becker Grand Prix radio with tape player. The trunk can also hold some decent cargo as it’s well-designed, taking into account the space needed for the folding canvas roof.

Engine

There’s a 5.6-liter V8 under the hood of this 1987 Mercedes-Benz 560SL. It’s rated at a reported 227 horsepower and 287 lb-ft of torque. The engine is naturally aspirated and uses Bosch fuel injection. It’s paired with a 4-speed automatic transmission and drives the rear wheels. The car also has disc brakes and power steering.
