The story behind this collectible...
The Mercedes "Sport Leicht" is an incorrigible series that attracted many real drivers to Mercedes. The R107 series of the SL replaced the W113 SL. The style went from curves and bulges clearly to a tighter, angular line which to this day, gives the car a sporty and tough look.
This 500 SL breathes 80s with its very stylish colour combination; Champagne metallic with a Brazil Leather brown interior and fabric hood. The 5.0-litre V8 was for the European market, the largest engine available, also the fastest in the Mercedes stable!
Our Cool Classic started its life in Denmark, after which it temporarily pioneered in the USA. Recently, it is back on Dutch soil, looking for a new enthusiast. The first owner has not been modest in ticking options, as this 500 SL is equipped with the following (read all) options:
