Description

Offered up for sale here we have this elegant Mercedes-Benz R107 300SL. The car is finished in the ever so desirable Nautic blue and has benefitted from a comprehensive panel off repaint attending to all of the small surface defects that were present on a 30-year-old car. This was all carried out in our fully equipped workshop and paint booth to the highest standard. The car is complete with its factory original hardtop finished in matching Nautic blue complementing the Crème/Beige interior perfectly presenting very well the hardtop was not repainted. As a late facelift car this SL benefits from a whole variety of revisions. Some of the best being the updated front bumper with chin spoiler, more thorough rust treating throughout and an updated ECU providing a better air/fuel mixture. This is an original right-hand drive UK supplied car that’s spent the last ten years prior to our ownership laid up in a garage preserving its originality. With a mere 85,520 registered miles on the clock this car has covered less than 3000 miles a year in its 31-year life. Proof of service history from 1988 in the original service book up until present gives piece of mind when buying. A slight gap in the service book when the car was stored is present, very limited mileage was covered in this time. The last service was carried out at 83,887 miles with a brake freshen up included and the car was recommissioned for the road. The car will receive a fresh service by us before leaving our showroom. A healthy MOT history is also present in the cars file along with all of the original booklets and brochures. This is a very usable Mercedes R107 that drives spot on and presents just as well. Whether it be for daily driving or Sunday shows this 300SL ticks all the boxes. Viewings are by appointment only.
