The R107 is one of those cars that appears in flotillas at your local car rally - a classic that's durable, numerous and endlessly evocative, with bold straight lines and brutalist angles making for a car that feels every bit as symbolic of its era as the Hollywood execs that picked them up in their droves back in the '80s.
Some forty years later, these USA cars are beginning to return to Europe, having benefited from the dry climates they often experienced in California. This particular car is no exception, having covered a respectably low 79,685 miles from new and still carrying much of its factory options.
These big, powerful roadsters are amongst the most definitive Mercedes-Benz products ever built, and continue to enjoy increasing popularity. Once this car has been registered in Europe, we're sure it'll prove very rewarding. 380SL (11).jpg778.74 KB
