This beautiful classic Mercedes sports. was last owned by an elderly gentleman who owned it for the past 12 years. being his pride and joy.   Due to increased age and health problems he stopped driving it around 2 years ago and the car was then stored and then eventually sold on.

 

It then received a large amount of attention from Continental Motor Services. Ford main dealer of Swansea.   The bodywork was stripped down and it received many replacement body panels including 2 x wings front. 2 wheel arches rear. new boot lid etc. The whole car was then repainted to a very high standard. as one would expect from a main dealer. Numerous other works were carried out by an enthusiast at the firm resulting in the superb example we now have here.

 

The body work and paint work finish are both impeccable. Excellent chrome and trims both internally and externally. The hood we believe is original except for 3 new clear plastic windows we had fitted.   The hood looks new. The car is very good mechanically. everything works. and it runs and drives exactly as it should.

 

We believe the previous owner is now deceased. and we have been unable to obtain service records from them.   However. we have contacted Eldons Service Station. who confirm that for the period of the last 12 years whilst the previous owner had the car. that they have serviced and maintained the car. There are no written records for this period.

 

We have had the car serviced and inspected by MB&B Mercedes Specialists of Cheltenham. Gloucestershire. May 2014.   The MOT runs until March 2015.

 

Supplied with red V5 registration document. HPI all clear certificate. VOSA MOT history printout. contact details for previous owner and contact details for Continental Motor Services. and Eldons Service Station.

 

We sell many 107 SL's and have seen a rapid rise in the values recently. this car is genuinely superb throughout and not one the ‘full of filler' examples that is so often offered for sale and mis-described.   Those of you in the know will understand!
