1988 Mercedes-Benz 560SL

1988 Mercedes-Benz 560SL Roadster Motorcar Studio is pleased to offer this 1988 Mercedes-Benz 560SL Roadster. Finished in the attractive shade of Pearl Grey Metallic over grey leather interior, this R107 presents very nicely inside and out. Body is straight and solid with excellent paint quality, bumpers, grille, glass, lenses and trim. Excellent original underside with zero observed rust (see detailed photos of floors, rockers, jack points, etc). Factory 15-inch Gullideckel alloy wheels are wearing Michelin radials. Both the color-matched hard top and a black canvas convertible top are in great shape. Interior, trimmed in grey leather, is in well-preserved original condition. Optioned with a rare rear seat (which is admittedly tiny, but suitable for pets or small children). Nice carpets, steering wheel, seats, door panels and wood. All gauges, lights and indicators are working properly, and all climate control functions are also working as they should (including cold A/C) -- all vents are working as well. The original Becker Grand Prix cassette stereo still works fine but has a couple of dead pixels (display remains legible, however). Under the hood is a 5.6 liter overhead cam V8 mated to an overdrive automatic transmission. The late 560SL incorporated all of the refinements of the R107 line (which debuted in 1972) -- it has the most advanced engine management, the best climate control, and of course the strongest overall performance. Smooth, comfortable, fast, stylish -- and with just 59k miles, it's barely broken in. This example runs and drives beautifully and has no known deferred maintenance needs. Jack, spare, factory tools, original owner's manual and stamped service book, and both top latch handles are included with the sale.
