Already made popular by the earlier designs, the new "R107" chassis SL quickly gained in popularity and sold exceptionally well in the US market. Due in part to its success and timeless styling, the R107 generation...

Finished in elegant Black exterior with Medium Red Leather interior and matching Black hard and soft tops, this wonderfully well-kept 1986 560SL is equipped with a 5.6L Bosch fuel-injected aluminum V8 engine producing 227hp and 279 ft lbs of torque!

This classic and increasingly desirable Mercedes 560SL roadster is in outstanding mechanical condition and ready to drive anywhere! Beginning in 2015, both fuel pumps were replaced along with all new spark plugs, then fuel pump hoses as well as air pump secondary valve in 2018. It also received a new subframe bushing kit, new Interstate battery, transmission cooling hose, and front brake service at that time. More recently in June 2019, it was serviced by Foreign Car Specialists in Madison, Wisconsin to include a full fuel system replacement at 74,874 miles. This included all new mechanical fuel injectors, injector o-rings, injector seals, cold start valve & gasket, idle air hoses, air distribution hose, fuel pump relay, and fuel pump regulator. Today, it shows only 74,920 original miles and continues to drive as new! It comes complete with original owner's manual, recent service documentation, clean accident free CarFax report, top operation instructions, one top wrench, original Mercedes gas cap, and front license plate bracket. It shows only subtle wear obvious of a vehicle that has been enjoyed and used over the years. It retains all original Mercedes & Sekurit window glass, with the front windshield showing some staining etched into the upper portion. All of our cars are advertised locally and nationally.
