Early 1973 Mercedes 350SL - Full History Folder - 350 500 S 500SL 500

1973 Mercedes 350 SL R107A very early production none-headrest model with mot and tax exemption and black and silver aluminium plates, owned and driven daily by my father, it has genuine low mileage, a full service history & a meticulous history folder.  I will expand upon these points below and detail how to find a video walk around online. 1. Mechanically Perfect & In Daily Use This is my fathers daily driver, she is mechanically beautiful and has a long MOT with no advisories, despite being MOT & Tax exempt. 2. Very Early Production Model with the Rare Early Features She is a very early model allowing tax and MOT exemption, allowing her to bear the historic black and silver aluminium number plates and she is the very rare and sought after non-headrest model which will be appreciated by enthusiasts. 3. Genuine Low Mileage, Full Service History & Meticulous History Folder She comes with a thorough, meticulous and fascinating history folder which documents her maintenance and ownership throughout the decades as well as including her original full service book, factory card, manuals etc. I have included details of her mileage and service history below. 4. Last Owner 16 Years, Nice Ownership History What do we know? Taken directly from her extensive history folder, she was supplied new on the 1st of May 1973 to M. N. S Crabbe Esquire of Tewkesbury. Mr Davies owned her for eight years in the late eighties and early nineties, then Mrs J Dye of Reading purchased her in 1998 and kept her until 2004 before selling her to Mr D Mitchell for £8750 via Golden Valley Cars of Gloucester. Mr D Mitchell of Lincoln then kept her until 2020 when a divorce forced him to sell to a dealer whom supplied her to us. My father has driven her back and forth to the coffee shop every other day for the last six months. 4. Rare Colour, Solid Body Her bodywork and underside are solid and she is finished in the very rare Burgundy colour. Certainly she will have some age related imperfections in places at 50 years and she's a daily driver, not a £50k show car, but she's solid and in very good condition. 5. Nice Interior She has a recently new soft top, her dash and wood are uncracked and her interior is very nice with the exception of worn carpets that may require replacement (Matt's currently used to hide this). 6. Expensive Private Registration The registration MCY 71L is included in the sale. 7. Extras She currently has a set of rare genuine Mercedes alloys and wheels fitted. If these aren't to your taste the original wheels are for sale on Ebay (with other sellers) with good tyres for £500 and steering wheel for £80 and I'm sure the sale of the current ones would fund these.To See a Walkaround Video Please call the below or search her registration MCY 71L on YouTube, Mileage & Service HistoryHaving a full original service book with 20 stamps and more paper history, this is a well looked after example.
