One of Sunset Boulevard’s iconic cruisers, the R107-generation Mercedes-Benz SL can be seen in many a Seventies and Eighties movie as the choice of wheels for the well-heeled. Enjoying a particularly long 18-year production run, this iconic example of Mercedes-Benz’ SL-Class two-door coupe and roadster is one of those classics that will only appreciate with age. Here’s a 1987 Mercedes-Benz 560SL Roadster with a reportedly genuine 40,852 original miles, coming from California. The seller reports that this rare color option is mostly original including the paint. If you’re looking to get in on classic SL action, this late-model R107 is a superb example to buy.
The iconic lines of the R107 have beautifully aged, much like a fine wine. This 1987 Mercedes-Benz 560SL Roadster sports a Smoke Silver paintwork and rolls on wheels with chrome covers, and the body sports the original decal pinstripes. New Michelin tires were reportedly recently installed. The seller honestly states that there is a slight fade on edge of the front fenders, a small spot on the driver’s door and a tape mark on the trunk lid. The soft top has been recently replaced, and the car also comes with its hard top included in the sale, as well as the original hardtop tools. Step aboard and you are welcomed by a Chocolate Brown interior featuring leather seats, wood-trim and plenty of creature comforts for the period. The seller reports that the dashboard has been replaced due to a crack in the original. New interior carpets are present, as is air conditioning which has been recently refurbished. The original Becker radio is no longer present, but that’s no bad thing as in its place is a modern Pioneer high-end head unit with AUX and USB inputs for you to enjoy a variety of music in modern formats. Another useful factor of late-model R107s is the presence of the driver airbag for added safety, which this example enjoys. Power windows and a power antenna are on board too.
This 1987 Mercedes-Benz 560SL Roadster is fitted with the automaker’s 5.6L V8 engine that uses Bosch fuel injection to deliver 227hp and 287lb-ft to the rear wheels via a 4G-TRONIC four-speed automatic transmission. Braking is via discs on all four wheels aided by an anti-lock braking system. The seller reports that the engine has never been rebuilt.
