1989 Mercedes-Benz 560SL — 50,000 Miles — Fully Sorted, Turn-Key Example.
This is a beautifully maintained and properly sorted 1989 Mercedes-Benz 560SL, finished in its original color combination with just ~50,000 miles.
It’s a car that’s been cared for and brought fully up to date mechanically — ready to be driven and enjoyed today.
Most low-mileage R107s look great in photos but still need thousands in deferred maintenance once you start driving them. This one has already had all the typical age-related items addressed in the last 3,000 miles by a top Los Angeles Mercedes specialist.
Major Recent Mechanical Work (~$6,000 in receipts)
Fuel system refresh: new fuel pressure regulator and all fuel hoses
Both electric fuel pumps and all hoses
Power steering reseal: rebuilt steering gearbox and new coupling
Rear main seal replaced (transmission removed)
Transmission cooling hoses replaced
Front subframe mounts renewed
New belts (A/C, alternator, power steering, air pump)
Valve cover gaskets replaced
Cooling system service: new expansion tank and cap
A/C evacuated and recharged — blows cold
Fresh oil, filters, and regular fluid service
All work performed professionally within the past few thousand miles; the car runs smoothly hot or cold with no smoke, no leaks, and a tight, quiet drivetrain.
🧭 Condition
The paint presents beautifully, the interior shows light, careful use, and the soft top is in excellent shape. All gauges and lights function properly. The car starts instantly, idles evenly, and drives confidently at highway speeds — smooth, solid, and refined, exactly how an R107 should feel.
