Vehicle Description
Produced from 1973 until 1980, the 450SL features the 4.5-litre V-8
engine offering a top speed of 135 mph, and presents a harmonious
courtship of understated prestige with sporty flamboyance.� In
fact, the R107 roadster body style represents the second longest
single series ever produced by the automaker, after the
G-Class.
This car represents one of few 450SLs delivered directly to the US
for sale during the model's final year.� It is completely original
and appears just as it must have for its first owner as he drove it
off the lot at Turner Motors in West Chester, a testament to his
unparalleled stewardship for 33 years.� Finished in Classic White
(737) with Midnight Blue (904) top and and leather interior, this
Mercedes presents as a lovely, unrestored, superbly cared for
example that is one of the finest examples in existence.� Showing
an unfathomable 12,800 documented miles, this exceptional
automobile is accompanied by a plethora of service records and its
data card, as well as original books, tools, hard top, and soft
top.
Few of these SL Roadsters have survived in original unrestored
condition.� This remarkable example is a rarity that is impossible
to duplicate and any enthusiast of the marquee would be proud to
own.
