The Mercedes R107 was launched in 1971 and production continued
through to 1989 - a hefty 18 years; the longest single series ever
produced by the firm besides the G-Class utility vehicle. The R107
replaced the W113 Pagoda SL in 1972 and was replaced by the R29 SL
in 1989. Some 237. 00 R107 SL's were built and about two thirds
were sold in the US. The car was essentially a two-seater sports
car although a small seating arrangement was available behind the
front seats. Mercedes-Benz offered a number of engine choices over
the years. the first cars in 1971 being fitted with the 350 engine. br/>a V8 3. 5-litre unit. By 1973 a larger 4. 5-litre. V8 was available. br/>constructed primarily for the US market. The SL Roadster has since
become the epitome of how a luxury roadster should look and is as
popular today as when first launched.

This early 1972 example was registered in January 1973 and is
offered in the very rare combination of Aqua Blue with deep blue. br/>hard wearing MB-Tex. We are informed that it was
professionally restored by a Mercedes-Benz specialist just nine
years ago and has seen little use since. leading to a full
re-commission in 2015 by the current vendor including an oil change
service in November. An extremely solid and honest example of
such a collectable roadster. this 350 SL is presented with good
chrome work. interior. optional additional passenger seats and a
very good optional hard top. Carpets were replaced just three years
ago along with a brand new. deep blue hood and all electrics are
working correctly. The car also comes with an MoT test certificate
until October 2016 with no advisories at which time it was also
noted that the car has near new brake pipes and new rear callipers.
Also present is the original hand book. tools for the roof and even
the original stereo. Qualifying importantly for a historic tax
classification. this 350 SL Roadster is sure to make a Sunday
afternoon drive even more pleasurable and can genuinely be
described as a classic.
