Gateway Classic Cars of Dallas is excited to offer this 1985
Mercedes-Benz 500SL Euro Import, a beautifully preserved example of
the legendary R107 roadster that combines timeless styling, refined
German engineering, and V8 grand touring performance. Finished in
an elegant blue exterior over a rich tan leather interior and
complemented by a matching blue soft top, this European-market
500SL has been cherished by the same owner since 1991 and shows
just 86,000 miles. With its desirable Euro-specification and
long-term ownership history, this SL is a rare opportunity to own
one of Mercedes-Benz's most iconic luxury roadsters.
Power comes from the sought-after 5.0-liter SOHC V8, delivering
smooth, effortless performance through an automatic transmission.
The European-market 500SL offered increased performance over its
U.S.-market counterparts, making it one of the most desirable R107
variants. Equipped with power steering and power brakes, this
Mercedes provides the refined driving experience that helped cement
the SL's reputation as one of the world's premier luxury sports
cars.
The deep blue exterior presents beautifully with classic R107
proportions, accented by chrome trim, color-matched blue soft top,
and attractive period-correct mesh alloy wheels that perfectly
complement the car's sophisticated appearance. The long hood, short
rear deck, and clean body lines remain as elegant today as when
they first debuted, making the R107 one of the most recognizable
Mercedes-Benz designs ever produced.
Inside, the tan leather interior showcases the exceptional
craftsmanship Mercedes-Benz was known for during the 1980s.
Woodgrain trim accents the center console and dashboard, while
supportive bucket seats provide outstanding comfort for
long-distance touring. The cockpit features classic Mercedes
instrumentation, power accessories, and cold air conditioning,
creating a luxurious environment equally suited for weekend cruises
or extended road trips.
With just one long-term owner for over three decades, this
Euro-import 500SL represents the kind of well-cared-for example
enthusiasts seek. The combination of desirable European
specifications, low mileage, elegant color combination, and
documented long-term ownership makes this classic Mercedes-Benz an
outstanding addition to any collection or an ideal vintage grand
touring convertible to enjoy on the open road.
Whether you're searching for an appreciating classic, a comfortable
weekend cruiser, or one of the finest luxury roadsters of the
1980s, this 1985 Mercedes-Benz 500SL Euro Import delivers style,
performance, and prestige in equal measure.
