Mercedes-Benz used the 'SL' variant name on 'Sport
Liecht' roadsters manufactured since 1954 and was first
applied to the 300SL 'Gullwing' so named after the upward-opening
doors. The Mercedes-Benz R107 and C107 editions were produced
from 1971 through to 1989 and were the second longest single series
ever produced by the company after the G-Class. The R107 took the
chassis components of the mid-size W114 model and mated them to the
larger engines from the S-Class (W116). The SL variant was a two
seat convertible/roadster with standard soft-top. hard-top and
optional seats for the rear bench.

Registered in November 1986. this example. finished in 'Diamond
Blue' with grey checker centre pattern seats is the very scarce
420SL variant. It benefits from drivers airbag safety equipment and
is fitted with a CD multichanger. It also has the optional rear
seats and colour coded hardtop. The fabric roof was renewed just
three years ago and the car has benefited from diligent maintenance
and upkeep throughout its life. There is a large history file to
accompany the car which contains 18 old MoT test certificates along
the original and stamped service book within the owner's handbook
wallet. There are also two sets of keys. a long MoT test
certificate and a current tax disc. The colour combination is
elegant and the car has been kept in fine order throughout. The V8
engine starts on the first turn of the key and settles quickly into
a steady idle. The driving experience is sumptuous and the car
feels every bit the definition of quality motoring by which so many
other manufacturers referenced themselves for many years.
A rare a desirable specification SL presented in
excellent order throughout.
