Vehicle Description
This week Canyon State Classics brings to market a final year 1989
Mercedes 560SL in a rare Petrol Green over Cream leather. This 107
was purchased new on Dec 8th, 1988 at Cherry Hill Imports where it
was maintained until 1996 when the car came to AZ. Since then it
has been strictly garage kept and driven sparingly. The original
interior and exterior of this car shows very well and the soft top
has never needed replacement- a testament to how well the car was
looked after! This 107 ticks all the boxes: stamped service book,
originality and a stand-out color combo. European classics are
getting quickly swallowed up by hungry collectors looking for the
next wave of ultra collectible MB classics. Don't miss your chance
to put this one in your investment portfolio!

equipped:
-5.6L 250hp V8 Engine

The body on the car is in beautiful condition and was extremely
well maintained. The car is finished in its gorgeous original
Mercedes color of Petrol Green and and has a gorgeous shine. The
car is straight as an arrow and looks spectacular. The car has been
completely inspected underneath from front to back and is solid as
a rock and rust free as any collector car should be. The car is
riding on the original 15" wheels with New Yokohamas. The
windshield is original and like new with no chips. The German Cloth
soft top is still in great condition with clean clear windows and
no rips. The hard top has good seals and the headliner is in
awesome shape. The interior is in great shape all around. The dash
and door panels are very nice with some very small cracks pictured
above. The supple original leather seats are all in very good
condition and look very nice with no rips or ware lines, which
shows the quality of leather used in this car. This 107 comes with
the optional kinder seat as well as the panel to delete the rear
seat. The carpets are all very nice are not worn or damaged. All
dials and controls function as they should, power windows and
antenna also are fully functional. Music is crisp and clear and not
overwhelming. The sound system definitely adds to the driving
experience of this roadster. All lights, gauges switches, and
accessories work as they should. This interior is in immaculate
condition. The trunk compartment is clean enough to eat from. The
spare tire compartment is clean as a whistle and the original spare
tire is present. Original jack is in place and the tool kit is even
still in the car. Mechanically, this SL runs GREAT! The car starts
right up and shifts smooth as silk. It drives as good now as the
day it rolled of the lot. The V8 engine is surprisingly quick and
responsive. Cherry Hill Imports sold the car new and serviced it up
until the mid 90's or just shy of 60k miles. This is documented in
the stamped maintenance booklet. The previous owner had a complete
AC system overhaul at 72k miles. Most recently, the car has been
through our shop for an oil service, tie rods, steering damper and
alignment. This thing is ready to start enjoying for many more
miles! All in all, this is one nice SL that I have had the
privilege of being associated with. It has been professionally
maintained and truly loved by its previous owners. This Mercedes is
a fantastic car for the price and includes every option offered in
this car. This is your chance to get an like new classic
convertible for a fraction of the cost of its original price. The
car has a clean Arizona Title and a clean Carfax and Autocheck. Any
