An impressive unbroken chain of every single V5 gives information on all 8 keepers of the who, where and when that buyers yearn for. Supplied with the original hardtop, Mercedes Benz owners manual, keys envelope, service bool and service directly. The VIN and Engine Numbers have been matched and confirmed.
Model Overview
Finished in a timeless ‘Astral Silver Metallic’ over Blue Interior Colour combination. The factory blue check cloth interior is a rare differentiator in todays market, pairing with the wooden inserts and presenting in a remarkably well kept condition. The 350SL is the original V8 that Mercedes fitted to the R107, giving its own collector appeal from the production run of one of the most definitive Mercedes Roadster’s. The 3.5L V8 offers effortless power and refinement, without the higher running costs of the later 5.0L V8 cars.
Preparation
In a factory correct and unmodified form, this R107 has benefitted from the highest standard of upkeep throughout the years. A full cosmetic restoration was completed to rectify the common pitful of R107 rust issues, recently brought up to its highest potential with a 3 stage machine polish and ‘Gtechniq’ 7 year Ceramic Coating. The underside has been treated and protected for future longevity - photo’s can be supplied upon request. With a £4000 invoiced mechanical overhaul in August 2023, this 350SL is ready to enjoy and presents above all the usual standard in all areas.
