“Mercedes-Benz widens the gap”
It is 1986, and American diplomat John Dixon has weighed up his options, made his decisions, and no longer harbors any doubts. The brochure for the Mercedes-Benz SL R107 lies before him, and with a sense of anticipation, he reaches for the telephone. The R107 had already proven itself over the years and had established a firm reputation among European sports cars. He selected the elegant and, crucially, rare options: a 3.0-litre inline-six with a 4-speed manual gearbox, finished in Champagne Metallic with leather interior, rear seats, and—importantly—original with a genuine odometer reading.
In 1988, his posting in the EU concludes, and he takes the car back to the United States, where he retains ownership until 1992, when it is sold to a Mercedes-Benz classic specialist in the US. Thereafter, the car remains within the same family in Maryland until 2019, when a Dutch buyer acquires it, returning the vehicle to its country of delivery to continue its journey.
Upon arrival, the car underwent meticulous servicing at Mercedes-Benz Dealer Gomes, receiving everything its heart could desire. Now, it stands ready to pass into the hands of its fourth owner. The full history is documented, with stamped service booklets confirming a genuine 91,000 km, and it is primed and ready to hit the road.
This, my friends, is a car that whispers sophistication in one breath, and then screams joy in the next.
In short: it’s a Mercedes SL R107. It doesn’t just go—it conquers.
