1988 Mercedes-Benz R107 300 Sl with Beige Leather (275)

1988 Mercedes-Benz R107 300 SL

Signal Red (568O) with Mushroom Leather (275) and Dark Blue Fabric Soft Top (5010)

38,000 miles

This 300SL is a top specification, carefully chosen car.

The first owner of this car ticked the boxes for Cruise Control, Air Conditioning and Rear Seats, three hard to find and expensive options that are not often found on six-cylinder cars. The addition of Mushroom Leather would have further added to the list price, making this one of the most expensive 300SLs of 1988.

This Signal Red car also features a Dark Blue Fabric Soft Top, which is an unusual choice. Owners would usually specify a Black soft top with a Signal Red SL, however the Dark Blue is an excellent choice – it gives the car a somewhat royal appearance when the soft top is in place.

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.
