Description
Mercedes-Benz 300SL (R107) | Extensive History & Recent Mechanical Work
A well-presented and honest Mercedes-Benz 300SL (R107), finished in a classic and rare colour combination.
This is a usable, well-maintained example that has clearly benefited from consistent upkeep over the years. The car starts, runs, and drives very well, offering the smooth and refined driving experience these cars are known for.
With 141, 000 miles, it has been enjoyed as intended, but importantly comes with a strong maintenance record and a significant amount of recent work.
Recent maintenance includes:
• Rebuilt gearbox (last year)
• New stainless steel exhaust system
• New alternator
• Replacement soft top
• Extensive brake overhaul (calipers, pads, pipes, hoses, fluid)
• Steering and suspension refresh including bushes and components
• Rust treatment carried out
• General servicing and upkeep
addressing key mechanical areas and ensuring the car is in good running order.
History
The car comes with a thick history file, including:
• Service records and invoices
• Documentation of past works
• Recent maintenance receipts
• MOT history
Condition
The car presents well overall:
• Paintwork and chrome in good order (had a stage 1 pant correct polish couple weeks back)
• Interior is original and complete, with some age-related wear (notably to the driver’s seat and on the rear seat there is a small to medium tear)
- kept in garage most of the time
• A tidy and honest example rather than a restored or concours car
Summary
A solid, mechanically sorted R107 that can be enjoyed immediately. These cars are becoming increasingly sought after, and this represents a great opportunity to own a usable example with the important work already done.
