About this Mercedes-Benz SL Series
This beautiful R107 Mercedes 300SL Sports was supplied new by Mercedes Benz dealer Mertrux (Derby) Ltd and first registered on 2nd January 1987 and has now covered 145,365 miles from new with a Full and comprehensive Service History including all books and manuals, MOT certificates and a folder full of invoices and receipts for works and parts purchased for the car.
It is finished in the beautiful Signal Red with a full Beige Leather interior, Beige Carpets, Rear Child Seats with belts, new Black mohair Soft Top, Factory Hard Top, Electric Windows, Electric Passenger Door Mirror, Pioneer Stereo/CD player and speakers, Central Door locking, Cobra Alarm system with a Global Telemetrics Tracker, front Fog lights, 2962cc Straight Six Fuel injected Engine, 4 Speed Automatic Transmission, Power Steering, ABS Brakes and its original and refurbished Mercedes 15" 'Flat Face' Alloy Wheels with fairly new Tyres and new Mercedes Benz mud Flaps!
The current owner purchased the car 10 years ago in July 2011 and has spent well in excess of £10,000 on works including a complete repaint in 2013 with some new repair panels and since then, the SL Shop have carried out various works and supplied many new parts, all of which is detailed in the history file.
This SL presents beautifully and speaks volumes about the money invested on maintenance by its previous owners and it looks as though it was only recently repainted. It has a beautiful interior and is mechanically excellent and drives like a car which has covered less than half the current mileage. The history file shows that the car has been exceptionally well maintained with invoices for many new components replaced over the years and it was MOT'd on 28th June 2021 and passed with 'No Advisories' which just goes to show how good this car really is! It has also recently been fully serviced by Classic Vehicle Engineering in Surrey.
It has been very keenly priced because it has covered a few more miles than some, but over 35 years it averages out to just over 4,000 miles per year, which represents pretty low mileage for a car of this age and. This car really is in exceptional condition throughout and drives beautifully and really does need to be seen and driven to be fully appreciated.
Upon sale the car will come with our own customer care package which in this case includes an HPI/provenance Check, 55-point pre-delivery inspection and a 6 months Mechanical breakdown Parts & Labour Warranty which can be upgraded and extended at additional cost if required.
