1979 Mercedes Benz R107 450SL with Black Race Seats
Signal Red (568) with Black Race Seats / 450SL
Principal Facts:
This is SLSHOP’s take on a competition R107, a 450SL that’s been honed for the circuit yet remains road legal and perfectly useable. After years of customer enquiries regarding stiffening up the R107’s chassis or adding more power, we decided it was time to launch our own range of upgrades to do just that. The Sportline project was born and what followed was a whole new dimension of driver-focussed, bolt-on upgrades that didn’t come at the cost of the character of these fabulous machines.
Tweaked further recently with a rally setup in mind – which included raising the ride height, changing the tyres and adjusting the damper settings – our 450SL Sportline is now as competent in the rough stuff as it was on the tarmac. The flexibility and adjustability of our Sportline upgrades allow us to cater to any driver requests as proven by this ultimate expression of the Sportline ethos.

I have followed SLSHOP with interest for some years now and recently took the plunge and purchased my dream car – they did not disappoint!
The whole experience from start to finish was superb. Their communication was excellent and they kept me
informed every step of the way. Thank you and I look forward to my next purchase!

I have just purchased a 280SL from SLSHOP. I have already purchased several parts from SLSHOP and have found all members of staff most helpful and it is more like dealing with a club than a commercial enterprise I would highly recommend using SLSHOP for cars, parts and most importantly impartial advice.

They put up with my indecision, inexperience and last minute demands and my car is the best thing I’ve ever bought. The most impressive thing about them is the after care though. Nothing is ever too much trouble and they’ve given me the best advice to make sure I get the most out of my car. Can you tell I’m obsessed with them all?
