Here is the chance to own THE NEXT COLLECTABLE SL ROADSTER – THE HOLY GRAIL of R107 Line – European Spec 500SL!!!

What makes this SL differ from the other ones on the US roads is that this is EUROPEAN model, featuring more powerful 5.0 liter V8 engine (more power and HP than US model 560SL), elegant European one piece square headlights, and more aesthetically appealing European short bumpers – The way Mercedes-Benz Designed the R107 Series!. The 500SL is also fastest production R107 SL produced!!

During its production course from 1980-1989 there was ONLY 11,812 of 500SL’s produced WORLDWIDE and this beauty is ONE of them!!!

This is also full-spec EURO car, including short chrome bumpers, one piece square headlights and even Speedometer/Odometer are in Kilometers (147,000KM ~91,500 miles) so import back to Europe should a done with ease!

With its rare and desirable color combination of Black exterior over Palomino leather interior, and the fact that this is true EUROPEAN 500SL, there is not a lot of R107 SL’s like this one on the road today!!

Exterior:

Its very rare and elegant Black Paint (Paint Code 040G schwarz) has a very nice shine and luster, and this beautiful German roadster is a head turner and conversation piece everywhere it goes. Paint appears to be original, and as with any used car of this vintage there are some small imperfections upon closer inspection, but nothing that’s taking away from its overall beauty.

This Mercedes is very solid (please see pictures!!!). Undercarriage is very solid, original and unmolested! Body is in wonderful condition and it is straight as an arrow! All doors, hood, and trunk are operating with ease, and everything lines up properly.

This SL is equipped with both soft top, and the hard top! Black Soft top is in great condition, it is very easy to operate, and vinyl windows are nice and clear.

Original matching numbers Hard top is also in great condition, including all the glass, and the headliner which is rips and tears free!!

Factory VIN # stamping on the front radiator support shows originality of this car.

-Engine & Transmission

European Spec 5.0 Liter V8 Engine starts up with ease, and it has no problems reaching highway speeds. Its very comfortable, and it handles the US roads with ease.

A/C is still original R12, and it would need to be converted to R134.

Despite the larger 5.6 liter engine of the 560 SL, the 500 SL is recorded as being the fastest production R107 SL produced. The 500 SL was published by Mercedes-Benz as having 0-60mph times of 7.4 seconds for a top speed of 225km/h (140mph).
