Background Story of this 1988 Mercedes-Benz 560SL

Overview of 1988 Mercedes-Benz 560SL For Sale by Owner

We're seeing many R107 Mercedes-Benz SL roadsters coming our way, and that's a good thing. You see, the R107 was the definitive car of the well-heeled in the Seventies and Eighties. Hollywood stars drove them on- and off-screen. Ditto Chairmen (and women), CEOs, and successful entrepreneurs. That fact, coupled with Mercedes-Benz's legendary reliability when correctly maintained, guaranteed a lot of cars are not only surviving but thriving to this day. This particular 1988 Mercedes-Benz 560SL is no different. Displaying 162,000 miles on the odometer, it's said to have undergone a complete restoration approximately a decade ago. Of those miles, a mere 2,000 are reported to have been done post-restoration, making this car as fresh as you can expect. Are you ready to put another 160,000 on this car? Trust us, you'll enjoy every moment of doing so.

Exterior and Interior

This 1988 Mercedes-Benz 560SL flaunts its timeless design in a regal shade of new teal paint and rolls on period-correct Mercedes-Benz alloys. Lower models in Mercedes-Benz's hierarchy might have gotten steel wheels and hubcaps at the time, not the top-shelf SL. As a proper North American market homologated car, it's got the obligatory elongated bumpers and separate headlamps, too. The car comes with a black convertible top, allowing you to enjoy unlimited sun and sky on pleasant days. Inside, you've got a two-seat cabin in black and tan, with plenty of creature comforts for the time. There's air conditioning and the stock Becker Grand Prix radio cassette head unit, as was common on Mercedes-Benz vehicles at the time. We also see an Alpine CD changer control directly beneath the head unit, indicating that this car has CD playback capabilities. A peek into the trunk confirms this, so you can load up a selection of CDs whenever you hit the road. And you'll definitely want to hit the road often in this car, thanks to its sublime ride and surprisingly potent engine.

Engine

As the top dog in the R107 line-up, this 1988 Mercedes-Benz 560SL enjoys a 5.6L V8 beneath its long hood. You can call up 227hp and 287lb-ft via your right foot and send it to the rear wheels through a 4-speed automatic gearbox. Meanwhile, the recirculating ball steering wheel with power assistance and 4-wheel power disc brakes ensure that driving this car is as easy as you'd expect.
