It is often said that life was better in the '80s. Music, clothes, and, of course, cars. This 1987 Mercedes 560SL is a car that could take you through time. Kept in pristine condition, this car is ready to stretch its legs, having covered just 80,000 miles in its 37-year life. With the name being around for 70 years, it's safe to assume that Mercedes knows what they’re doing.
The interior of this SL has aged like a fine wine. The tan heated leather seats show hardly any signs of wear, ready for those long, summer evening drives with the top down. With a JVC head unit, AC, and power windows, you can experience pure driving pleasure in comfort. Witness elegance every time you lay eyes on this car. Its black bumpers contrast well with the dark red paint and are complemented nicely by the chrome 15-inch wheels wrapped in Kumho rubber. But take the body-colored convertible hard off, and it's a whole different car. It oozes class with its combination of flat body panels and curvy bonnet.
With a name like 560 SL, you’d hope this car has an engine to match — and that it does. A 5.5 Liter V8 beast making up to 230 hp equipped with Bosch KE-Jetronic fuel injection. Paired to it is a 4-speed automatic, which promises smooth power delivery. Featuring double-wishbone front suspension with coil springs & anti-roll bar and a semi-trailing arm rear suspension with coil springs & anti-roll bar, this SL has a powerplant that is well-suited for any driver. With a new battery and a new A/C unit, be assured that this is an extremely well-kept example of a classic Mercedes.

It is often said that life was better in the '80s. Music, clothes, and, of course, cars. This 1987 Mercedes 560SL is a car that could take you through time.

The Mercedes-Benz R107 series of the fine SL-Class ran between 1971 and 1989. It is the second longest single-generation in Mercedes-Benz history, eclipsed only by the mighty G-Class. But that doesn’t mean the Mercedes-Benz were resting on their laurels. Contrary to that, they focused on incremental improvements and upgrades for every model year. That’s why if you were to park this 1988 Mercedes-Benz 560SL next to one from the initial years of the production run, you’d notice differences in the interior amenities, plus under the skin. So, if you want a later-model SL from the R107 generation, you can buy this car from us. It may have done 141,000 miles, but that’s mere child’s play for a well-maintained classic Merc.
The SL name has long been associated with sleek, graceful roadsters. In the late 50s and early 60s, Mercedes famously created the 300SL and the 190SL, and then the W113 SL series in the mid to late 60s, which were heralded as some of the best-looking cars of the era. Now the question lay, come the early 70s, could Mercedes keep up with this heritage? And they did, with the R107. Based on the W114 chassis, the R107 series was made from 1971 to 1989 as the sole 2-seater roadster in the Mercedes lineup. Following up on the success of the W113 SL in the US market, greater focus was placed on making the R107 more American-friendly, from the headlamps to the engine options. The 560SL was the flagship version in the US market, available from 1986 to 1989, with the 5.6L V8. The 500SL was even more powerful as it wasn’t held back by US emissions regulations but was never officially available in the US market for the same reason.
The 1991 Mercedes-Benz 560SEL Sedan is from the second generation of the legendary Mercedes-Benz S-Class line. The W126 is so far the most successful and the longest in production generation of the iconic S-Class. The W126 project was led by Mercedes-Benz Chief designer Bruno Sacco who aimed to make the new S-Class more aerodynamic, efficient and retain the unmistakable design elements that makes the S-Class an S-Class. The weight was significantly cut down by extensive use of high-strength low-alloy (HSLA) sheets and polyurethane deformable material for the bumpers and side claddings. Lighter alloy material was used for the heavily revised 5.6-liter M117 V8 engine that this Mercedes-Benz 560SEL houses. It is also the biggest engine that you could have had with a W126 S-Class. Our featured car has a total of 80,000 miles on the odometer. We’re told this particular model has been treated to new parts and has had the front end completely rebuilt as reported by the current owner.
The Mercedes-Benz SL-Class was born as a sports car with no intention of developing into a street version. Two years later, a street-legal version was proposed for wealthy performance car enthusiasts, as the personal luxury car market was thriving at the time. A few decades later, the famed German automaker Mercedes-Benz commemorated the 60th anniversary of a memorable motor racing success. An extraordinary special model of the SL Roadster was unveiled to celebrate this milestone, and it was dubbed the "Mille Miglia," referring to the unexpected victory of a 300 SL in the production sports cars class in 1955. This example is a 2016 Mercedes-Benz SL550 Special Edition Mille Miglia 417 with 30,150 miles on its clock. This is your chance to experience the unique symbiosis of maximum comfort and motor-racing spirit that traditionally characterizes every SL.
If you want to own a luxury Mercedes-Benz that’s a classic but still relatively modern, you can’t go amiss with an R107 example. Made between 1971 and 1989, the R107 SL-Class is a Hollywood darling and a perfect example of what Mercedes-Benz can do when they set their minds on being the best. What’s more, this 1980 Mercedes-Benz 450SL is an excellent choice because it’s got a lovely fuel-injected V8 beneath the hood. Packing a mere 98,500 miles, the current owner says that the car has received a new battery and all-new tires too. So, it’s basically a buy-and-drive classic.
Experiencing a classic motor that is original is a tough ask, as the years go by and multiple owners take over, it's normal for cars to lose their former glory along the way. Present today is the best way to experience the best of yesteryear and takes form with this lovely 1991 Jaguar XJS Convertible Classic. The classic British motor is reported to have just 43,000 original miles since new and is geared for cruising in luxury and style. What's better? This classic also comes with its owners manual and documentation to prove its originality.
