Can there be a more iconic colour combination than Signal Red with Black Leather Interior?

Signal Red is the shade that many go to immediately when thinking of an R107. Blame Bobby Ewing, blame the 1980s… but you have to agree it’s a fantastic hue for the shape of the car. Whilst we see many of the later style R107’s in this colour (post 1986 facelift cars), it’s rare to find early cars as good as this one. Being a 1985 car, this 500SL was built just before the major shift to the new style for 1986.

These early cars are really starting to gain in momentum, particularly if they are equipped with the Mexican Hat style alloy wheels. This car ticks all the boxes, and is ready to be used and enjoyed.

Coming from long term ownership, this car has been the property of a customer who has become a friend over recent years. Now looking to downsize his collection, this 500SL is looking for a new owner.

This Mercedes-Benz has been hand-picked by SLSHOP’s sales team due to its high calibre status. Every inch of this vehicle’s exterior, interior and mechanicals have been inspected by SLSHOP’s workshops to ensure the vehicle meets our world leading standards. While every effort has been made to offer pristine vehicles, there will be some age-related marks, unless otherwise stated.

We advise interested parties to join us for a coffee to peruse the documentation accompanying this vehicle. There are servicing records and invoices, MOT and tax records dating back many years and as such must be viewed in person.
