DESCRIPTION
The 'R107' SL series is now firmly regarded as a classic design reflecting Mercedes-Benz at their height of superior build quality. Thought of as the best convertible money could buy in the late 1970's/early 1980's ~ the 350SL offered a 200BHP 3.5 V8 car with outstanding looks and great presence.
This particular 350 SL was built in 1980 and is an original UK right hand drive car supplied by a Midlands main agent. Finished in Classic White with a black hood and cloth upholstery the car is said to drive very well and comes from being part of a significant private collection since 2010. Prior to that it was owned by one family from new, passing from a mother to her son. Previous M.O.T records in the history file confirm the mileage of 91,000 as genuine, as do the service invoices from 1980-2011. Coming to the sale with a fresh M.O.T and offered at 'no reserve', it could be the bargain of the sale.
