Description of 1988 Mercedes-Benz SL-Class

This 1988 Mercedes-Benz 560SL is for a collector, because it was owned by a collector/specialist. So as you look over the whole car, you're going to see a nice shine, a loaded A/C interior, and all the other extras that tell you this premium classic has been given premium care.
The factory-correct Signal Red has a nice gloss that gives this convertible distinction every time you take it out in the sunshine. Exceptionally fitting body panels, clean glass, and a mirror-like finish on the chrome bumpers are all part of a package that came from a precision builder when new. And it retains that feeling because this has since come from the care of a Mercedes specialist. The black folding roof looks nice as it coordinates with the clean rubber protecting the bumpers and sides. And for added distinction, this comes with the desirable color-matched accessory hardtop that gives you a coupe-like profile.
Of course, you're going to be enjoying this SL the most with no top at all. And so you'll love that this was born with a Palomino tan interior. The color combo looks timelessly elegant against the exterior red, and the coordinating pinstripe on the outside give this that extra touch of class. This has been well-preserved, including the great-looking supple leather in the front bucket seats. The back has also been upgraded with full seating that includes seatbelts. Mercedes R107 fans know this was not available in the USA, so this addition that few others have will be a cool talking point. This is loaded with great-looking factory-style features, including power windows, power locks, cruise control, driver's airbag, and the Becker AM/FM/cassette stereo. And since the air conditioning is blowing nice and cold, you get to stay comfortable even during summertime top-down driving.
Under the hood is the numbers-matching 5.6-liter V8. This fuel-injected powerhouse is what gives the R107 its reputation as a terrific luxury cruiser. It's a smooth runner that also has a well of torque that can feel limitless. The clean engine bay has the clean and fresh look of proper maintenance, and the way it fires up and runs affirms its quality care. When you get this Benz out on the road, the fully independent suspension, four-speed automatic transmission w/overdrive, and four-wheel disc brakes all work in harmony to make this feel effortless, sporty, and confident.
The sale comes complete with the owner's manual packet. This SL is from someone who respects Mercedes-Benzes, and so this one is for those who appreciate a quality classic. Call today!!!
