Santa baby, slip an SL under the tree, for me… Well, it might be a little late for that, but there’s plenty of time to make an SL part of your New Years Resolution. Our showroom hosts a selection of carefully chosen cars to suit all tastes – we have more than sixty classic Mercedes-Benz cars available.

 

This is a snapshot of our current roster of available cars, browse the complete showroom here.

 

The Iconic Red Car – 1981 Mercedes-Benz 280SL R107 for sale

 

The Red Car - 1981 Mercedes-Benz 280SL R107 for sale

 

Is Signal Red the colour that’s synonymous with the R107? Blame Dallas if you like, but there’s a strong case for the argument that Signal Red is the ultimate 107 SL colour. This fantastic Early SL looks superb with it’s colour matched wheel trims, and as it says in the description… Finding an early car in good condition is difficult. Is Signal Red the ultimate R107 colour? Let us know your thoughts in the comments below. More Details…

 

The Early Car – 1984 Mercedes-Benz R107 280 SL for sale

 

The Early Car - 1984 Mercedes-Benz R107 280 SL for sale

 

We don’t often see white R107SLs, perhaps the colour fell out of favour while these cars were at the bottom of it’s value curve in the late 1990s…? White is enjoying somewhat of a resurgence, and the contrasting black interior of this example make it a truly lovely looking car. Sometimes things really are black and white. More Details…

 

The Late Car – 1988 Mercedes-Benz R107 300SL for sale

 

The Late Car - 1988 Mercedes-Benz R107 300SL for sale

 

Almandine Red is synonymous with later R107 SLs, a colour that was only available for the final two years of production. With front and rear seats trimmed in Cream, this is one handsome looking SL. More Details…

 

The Driver’s Car – 1986 Mercedes-Benz 420SL R107 for sale

 

The Driver's Car - 1986 Mercedes-Benz 420SL R107 for sale

 

This 420SL makes an excellent drivers car because for the last few years it’s been used for just that… With all the little niggly things taken care of in line with the demands of a daily driven car, this one is ready to go. Don’t worry about adding miles to the odometer just concentrate on the enjoyment the car could give you on a European driving tour. More Details…

 

The Collector’s Car – 1989 Mercedes-Benz 300SL R107 for sale

 

The Collector's Car - 1989 Mercedes-Benz 300SL R107 for sale

 

As this rare Blue Black 300SL has covered just 14,000 miles it’s the perfect collector combination. The paperwork is impeccable and the ownership history and correspondence that comes with the car is also enviable. More Details…

 

The Left Hand Drive Car – 1984 Mercedes-Benz 380SL R107 for sale

 

The Left Hand Drive Car - 1984 Mercedes-Benz 380SL R107 for sale

 

This wonderful 380SL has been subject to a very high grade restoration. Finished in a Rolls Royce shade, it’s an unusual colour that suits an R107 remarkably well. With a beautifully finished interior, this car has to be seen. More Details…

 

The Cruiser’s Car – 1971 Mercedes-Benz 280SE 3.5 Coupe for sale

 

The Cruiser's Car - 1971 Mercedes-Benz 280SE 3.5 Coupe for sale

 

A big wafty V8 engine in the front, luscious leather interior inside, beautiful blue paintwork for all to admire. Pop all the windows down and enjoy this one at slow speeds. More Details…

 

The ‘Take Me To Goodwood’ Car – 1971 Mercedes-Benz 280SE 3.5 Cabriolet for sale

 

 

If there’s a finer form of open transport for four adults and luggage, let us know in the comments… More Details..

 

The ‘you don’t find those in that condition’ car – 1978 Mercedes-Benz 450SLC R107 for sale

 

The 'you don't find those in that condition' car - 1978 Mercedes-Benz 450SLC R107 for sale

 

This fantastic Icon Gold with Beige Velour car is a superb proposition, having had recent and extensive rust protection and waxoyl treatment throughout. More Details….

 

The Modern Classic Car – 1999 Mercedes-Benz 320SL R129

 

 

With it’s delightful wooden steering wheel with the reassuringly heavy feel, the panoramic roof and heated seats, this beautiful R129 is the perfect candidate for Chris Rea. Or driving home for christmas, if you missed that link! More details…

 

The ‘aren’t those starting to age really gracefully’ car – 2006 Mercedes-Benz SL350 R230 for sale

 

The Modern Classic Car - 2006 Mercedes-Benz SL350 R230 for sale

 

Fitted with the sublime 3.7 litre V6 engine this affordable classic looks just the part in it’s Iridium Silver paintwork matched to Antracite leather. With the vario folding roof and electronic comforts such as heated seats, this is a world away from the R107 in almost every way… including the price tag! More details…

 

This is a snapshot of our current roster of available cars, browse our showroom here.

 

Looking to sell your classic Mercedes-Benz SL? We are always interested in hearing about 190, 113, 107 and 129 models. If you have a car for sale or know of one we may be interested in, please contact Bruce.
