Vehicle Description
The Mercedes-Benz SL series started out as the top of the line
sports luxury tourer that offered both performance and comfort. The
third generation SL was called the R107 chassis and is one of the
most recognizable Mercedes of all time. Produced from 1971 all the
way to 1989, the R107 lived a long and cherished life. The United
States was an extremely popular market for the personal luxury
coupe and almost ? of all SL's were sold here. While not as quick
or pretty as their European cousins, the US market SL's still
represented the cream of the personal luxury car crop. The 380SL
was a mid range model that offered an excellent blend of both
efficiency and V8 performance
GR Auto Gallery is pleased to offer this nice low mileage 1983
380SL for your consideration. Finished in a classic shade of
Mercedes Astral Silver over navy blue. The paint is very nice
overall, with great gloss and just a few small stone chips. The
body is very straight and in excellent shape. Chrome and rubber
trim is in good shape. US market lights and bumpers are fitted and
are in great shape as well. The factory hard top fits well and the
blue soft top is very nice. The factory 14in "Bundt" alloy wheels
are very nice and have Michelin tires fitted. A full size spare is
in the trunk. The interior features excellent navy blue leather
seats that have miniscule wear on them The wood interior trim is
excellent, with no major clear coat loss like usual. Factory Becker
Grand Prix radio is fitted, as is power windows, power locks, power
mirrors, air conditioning, and factory rubber floor mats. The doors
close with a reassuring thunk and the dashboard is very nice and
fully functioning.
The car is fitted with the smooth 3.8L V8 that is a solid runner
and is mated to a unobtrusive automatic transmission. The car
glides down the road like you'd expect a classic Mercedes would and
the choice of tops, large trunk, and comfortable seats mean that
this is one flexible cruise. It even has both keys, two top tools
and the owners manual!
