We are delighted to offer this lovely 1987 Mercedes-Benz 300 SL, finished in Nautical Blue Metallic with a contrasting Light Beige interior and showing just over 53,000 miles from new.
This is an example with a nice story behind it, with the previous keeper having owned the Mercedes for an incredible 38 years. He purchased it from The Wilmslow Motor Company in July 1988 and kept it right up until 2026, which goes a long way to explaining how well it has been looked after.
Since purchasing, the current owner has continued to maintain it properly and has spent over £1,000, with an invoice in the history file for the recent work carried out.
The bodywork presents very well in its Nautical Blue Metallic paintwork, and it is a great colour for an R107. It sits on a set of period AMG-style alloy wheels and benefits from an AMG steering wheel, giving it a slightly sportier look while keeping that classic Mercedes appearance.
Inside, the Light Beige interior is in very good order and contrasts beautifully against the dark blue exterior. The mileage of just over 53,000 miles is particularly impressive and the condition throughout certainly reflects the careful ownership it has enjoyed.
It comes complete with its colour coded factory hardtop as well as the folding soft top, making this an example that can genuinely be enjoyed throughout the year.
Power comes from the smooth 3.0-litre straight-six engine paired with an automatic gearbox, a combination that suits the R107 perfectly and makes these later 300 SLs such enjoyable to drive.
There is a good history file accompanying the Mercedes with invoices and supporting paperwork, including the recent expenditure from the current owner.
A very well presented, low mileage R107 with fantastic long-term ownership behind it, a great colour combination and plenty of history. This is a 300 SL that has clearly been cared for throughout its life and is ready for its next owner to enjoy.
