The Mercedes models were always poorly motorised compared to others available on the American market. That is why Mercedes introduced the 560SL (BM107.048) in 1985. The 5.6L V8 engine (M117E52) produced 227 HP (4,750 rpm) and 366 Nm (4,000 rpm). This 560 model was only available for the American, Australian and Japanese markets.

This Mercedes is equipped with all luxury options such as air conditioning, airbags, power windows, power locks, power steering, cruise control and a third brake light.

This Mercedes is in original condition (the engine and transmission are both original). The car starts immediately, shifts through all gears and brakes properly. The interior is original and still in a fairly neat condition (apart from some small scratches in the dashboard, due to sunlight), the interior looks timeless with the 441 Impala metallic lacquer. Also, the car still has the original toolkit and the original Becker radio.

The car has good paintwork and the engine compartment looks fresh and well maintained. The hardtop is in neat condition, the soft-top needs to be repaired (see the last couple of pictures). The original wheels have recently been revised..

These Mercedes convertibles are starting to follow the prices of the Pagoda, especially the 560SL in this condition is much sought after so don’t miss this chance and become the new owner of this timeless Mercedes convertible!
