The Appeal
The Mercedes-Benz R107 560SL represents the top model of the iconic SL roadster lineup, featuring the largest and most powerful engine offered in the R107 series. This 1986 model is from the final years of production, when the R107 had reached its most refined form after nearly two decades of development.
This Arctic White example comes with comprehensive documentation including a Mercedes Datacard, original books and manuals, and a clean CARFAX report confirming its damage-free history. As a properly imported example with all duties and VAT paid, all the buyer has to do is register it in Europe and return it to the road.
