The Appeal
The arrival of the 300SL was an important update for the handsome R107. This new straight six 185bhp engine was as powerful as the earlier V8s but offered better economy. All good reasons to want one of these later cars for your weekend drives and European road trips.
This car looks very handsome in Nautical Blue metallic with contrasting Palomino leather interior. A matching hard top and black folding roof are included. Its 96,213 miles, confirmed by a clean CARFAX report, is barely run in for one of these highly durable cars.
The car was originally destined for Israel but is currently located in Spain having arrived from the USA. European VAT and import duties have been paid.
It is hard to beat a good 300SL for your next classic adventure. This one looks both stylish and well kept.
