The Appeal
The R107 is, simply, iconic. These big, retro roadsters came stocked with top-notch powerplants, winning build quality and decidedly sumptuous interiors that may well make them a candidate for one of the motoring world’s all-time greats.
This late example, originally based in the USA, offers a great opportunity to see what all of the fuss is about.
