The Appeal
Practically purpose-built to run down sun-soaked boulevards, the R107 is one of the ultimate evolutions of the open-top roadster. Big, V8-toting machines with brutalist lines and a luxurious executive trim. It continues to be a highly desirable machine and a much-loved modern classic.
This 1973 example has benefited from considerable recent attention, both cosmetic and mechanical. It has been resprayed in silver and the interior re-trimmed in blue, while a thorough service has addressed brakes, steering components, and general maintenance items, as detailed below. A stainless steel exhaust has also been fitted.
Currently used by the vendor as a daily driver for long-distance commuting, this 350 SL passed its MOT in August 2026 with only minor advisories, and now eagerly awaits its lucky new keeper. IMG_7091.JPG6.76 MB

✓ The seller is registered as a private seller which means consumer rights stemming from EU consumer protection law do not come into effect. However, you are still covered by Car & Classic’s own Terms and Conditions..
