Vehicle Description
This 1987 Mercedes-Benz 560 SL is part of a timeless luxury
tradition. So to find such a well-priced example with desirable
features (including the big fuel-injected V8 and a removable
hardtop) makes for an irresistible deal.
The Mercedes R107 is one of those cars that just seems to transcend
age. You look distinguished driving one no matter if you are in
your 20s or 80s. This broad range appeal is especially true on this
factory-correct white example. After all, it's nice to have a color
as eternal as the car. It also helps that this has been given the
right investments, like a quality respray. These Benzs are known
for their build quality, and you can see that here as this
convertible that still looks crisp with gaps that would be the envy
of cars half its age. And as you look over the car, you're going to
see some premium details, like polished factory-style wheels and a
color-matched removable hardtop.
While the hardtop gives you a coupe-like profile, and the black
soft top has an elegant look against the white, we really love
these best as convertibles. That's why they made a solid investment
in the interior, too, later in life. It means you can share this
with the world with pride. Two high-back tan leather bucket seats,
power windows, power locks, cruise control, and R134a air
conditioning (needs servicing) all make for a comfortable cruiser.
And you'll appreciate the little things, like the glossy wood trim
and the Becker Grand Prix AM/FM/cassette stereo. The Mercedes
safety steering wheel w/airbag feels grippy in your hands, and it
gives you a clear view of the full VDO gauge panel with crisp dials
for everything, including the speedo and tach.
Under the hood is the 5.6-liter V8. The 560SL was the car to have
from the R107 period because it combined a powerful motor with a
reputation for bulletproof durability. But all you really need to
know is that out on the road this luxury convertible strikes the
perfect balance between nimble machine and all-weekend cruiser.
That's thanks to a specially engineered fully independent
suspension, four-speed automatic transmission with overdrive, and
four-wheel disc brakes. They all work in harmony to provide a true
luxury experience that has been the envy of other carmakers.
Complete with owner's manual, this is the superior classic that
begs for the long way home and can carry all the luggage for a
weekend getaway. A full wish-list car like this is a great way to
treat yourself. Call today!!!
