Very few success stories from the automotive arena come close to that of Mercedes and the legendary SL lineup of the Seventies and Eighties. It was not just a pretty convertible, it was the convertible to have, and while it was an expensive piece of machinery back in the day, it was sold by the droves. What made it all so popular was pure German engineering and a car that suited the market very well. People loved it to the point that the car sold over 250,000 units in its 18-year production run.

With a reported 17,750 miles on the clock, this 1987 Mercedes Benz 560SL Convertible is reported also to be a former museum vehicle and is in almost factory condition.
