Principal Facts:
1984 Mercedes-Benz 380SL (R107) #2077 Left Hand Drive
This completely restored 1984 380 SL has been built to concours standards by an overseas Mercedes-Benz specialist. It enjoyed a ‘body off’ restoration with the end goal being perfection both inside and out, including the underside and engine.
The 3.8 litre engine was fully rebuilt and detailed to ‘show standard’.
Outside the brightwork, seals and chrome are all in superb condition, along with the sort top.
The colour is a Rolls Royce hue, a complex and rewarding colour to look at, appearing a bright cherry red in some lights whilst being more plum in others. A fantastic shade the likes of which we haven’t seen on an R107 before.
Inside the car has been retrimmed in factory correct grey German leather, complete with perforation, including the door cards. The interior of this car is beautiful to behold – it is a joy to sit in, to experience and feel.
To observe this car up close is to appreciate the sheer level of craftsmanship that has gone into creating a very fine Mercedes-Benz indeed. It is clear that this SL was a source of great pride for the previous owner – a finished product that would take large reserves of enthusiasm and finance to complete, now available and ready to be used by a new owner.
It enjoys some neat upgrades, such as the height adjustable seat (usually only found on later cars), outside air temperature gauge and premium Focal loud speakers. The audiophiles amongst you will surely appreciate the latter – Focal have been making high quality audio equipment since 1979, not far from the production date of this car.
Just beautiful.

INDUSTRY TRUSTED
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?
