1985 Mercedes-Benz 500SL R107 EURO Model
Here is the chance to own THE NEXT COLLECTABLE SL ROADSTER – THE HOLY GRAIL of R107 Line – European Spec 500SL!!!(VIN#WDB1070461A010448) What makes this SL differ from the other ones on the US roads is that this is EUROPEAN model, featuring more powerful 5.0 liter V8 engine (more power and HP than US model 560SL), elegant European one piece square headlights, and more aesthetically appealing European short bumpers – The way Mercedes-Benz Designed the R107 Series!. The 500SL is also fastest production R107 SL produced!! During its production course from 1980-1989 there was ONLY 11,812 of 500SL’s produced WORLDWIDE and this beauty is ONE of them!!! With its rare and desirable color combination, and the fact that this is true EUROPEAN 500SL, there is not a lot of R107 SL’s like this one on the road today!!
Exterior:
Its very rare and elegant Silver Blue Metallic (Paint Code 930G silberblau) paint has a very nice shine and luster, and this beautiful German roadster is a head turner and conversation piece everywhere it goes. As with any used car paint has few small imperfections (small scratches) upon closer inspection, but nothing that’s taking away from its overall beauty. This Mercedes is very solid (please see pictures!!!). Body is in wonderful condition and it is straight as an arrow! All doors, hood, and trunk are operating with ease, and everything lines up properly. This SL is equipped with both soft top, and the hard top! Black Soft top is in good condition, it is very easy to operate, and vinyl windows are nice and clear. Original Hard top is also in great condition, including all the glass, and the headliner which is rips and tears free!!
-Interior
Original Gray interior is in great condition! Carpet is in great shape, and its rips and tears free. Seats are also in great condition, and very supportive and comfortable. This Mercedes comes with power windows, and they are working as it should. Just take a look at the pictures, and you will get an idea about the condition of this car, how nicely it is kept, and how beautiful it is.
-Engine & Transmission
European Spec 5.0 Liter V8 Engine starts up with ease, and it is strong and powerful as ever with only 80,000 miles on the odometer. Right before we acquired it, its previous owner had a full tune up done on it, including spark plugs, wires, ignition cap, rotor, air filter, coolant flush and oil change. Only thing this car will need is lower control arm bushings (squeaky) which are included with the car, and A/C will need to be looked into. Despite the larger 5.6 liter engine of the 560 SL, the 500 SL is recorded as being the fastest production R107 SL produced. The 500 SL was published by Mercedes-Benz as having 0-60mph times of 7.4 seconds for a top speed of 225km/h (140mph). Torque for the 500 SL is 296lb·ft (401N·m) at 3200 rpm and for the 560 SL 287lb·ft (389N·m) at 3500 rpm. Automatic Transmission shifts smoothly and effortlessly through every gear, and it makes this SL absolute joy to drive and cruise in! This German Roadster handles great at the high speeds, and it is very comfortable. This SL is ready for some summer topless fun!!!! There is nothing better than driving down the road with the top down, and the wind in your hair!!!
-Values
