Even by Mercedes-Benz standards, the R107 SL remains one of the most iconic grand tourers ever built. Produced from 1971 to 1989, its timeless design by Friedrich Geiger—the visionary behind the legendary 300 SL Gullwing—has ensured its place among the marque’s most enduring classics. Combining impeccable engineering, refined comfort and effortless style, the R107 continues to captivate collectors and enthusiasts around the world.

This 1987 560 SL represents the final and most refined evolution of the series. Powered by Mercedes-Benz’s 5,547cc V8 and paired with a smooth 4-speed automatic transmission, it delivers the relaxed, effortless performance that made the model one of the world’s finest open-top grand tourers.

Finished in Astral Silver Metallic (735) over a beautifully preserved Blue leather interior and showing just 19,382 miles from new, this exceptional example perfectly reflects the understated elegance for which the R107 has become renowned. Advanced features for its era, including ABS brakes, a driver’s airbag and a limited-slip differential, further highlight Mercedes-Benz’s commitment to innovation during the final years of production.

Increasingly sought after by collectors for its timeless design, exceptional build quality and everyday usability, the 560 SL remains one of the defining Mercedes-Benz classics. Beautifully preserved and wonderfully rewarding to own, this outstanding example represents a rare opportunity to acquire the ultimate expression of the iconic R107.
