The very first SL was a racing car until the US importer Max
Hoffman requested a street version to sell here in the US. The SL
was born in 1954 and the line has been going strong since. SL or
"Sport Light" was a grand touring car that made a big first
impression on wealthy auto enthusiasts post WWII. The third
generation of the SL or the R107 as it was internally known as was
built and sold for nearly twenty years, from 1971 through 1989 both
in a coupe and convertible variant. These cars were highly popular
amongst the wealthy and command good dollars with collectors
assuming they have been properly owned and cared for, as this one
sure has been. This stunning triple brown car with paint code 480
indicating Manganese Brown Metallic with interior color code of 504
or Espresso Brown is an excellent color combination and so properly
1983 in addition to the matching Manganese Brown hard top and brown
soft top, both of which are in excellent condition as is the rest
of the car with the exception of a couple cosmetic imperfections
like a couple small door dings. The paint is in wonderful condition
as is the interior with a tidy engine bay and trunk compartment.
This is a wonderful driving car with no known issues to speak of.
