A wonderfully presented Mercedes-Benz R107 420SL in Willow Green with Beige Leather and Brown soft top. This is a superb colour combination which suits the later R107, a hue that is currently in high demand.
Regular visitors to our online showroom will know that any green is a rare colour for an SL. It is not often that we are able to offer high calibre cars in any shade of green, despite the fact that throughout it’s life cycle the R107 was available in no less than 17 different greens!
Willow Green is a Mercedes-Benz colour that’s synonymous with the late 1980s, appearing in SL brochures for the last 3 years of production from 1986-1989. As greens and browns fell out of favour in the early 2000s, many cars fell by the wayside. With these colours now more popular and in demand than ever, there could not be a better time to purchase a Willow Green with Beige SL. The colours are further complimented by the dark shades of wood within the cabin, resulting in a highly luxurious picture.
As with the 500SL, Cruise Control and Limited Slip Diff are standard options on the 420SL.
The factory fitted rear seats trimmed in matching Beige Leather that are fitted to this car would have been an expensive optional extra back in 1988.
Finding a 420SL in any condition is getting more difficult to do – this really is one special car to behold.

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?
