Description of 1989 Mercedes-Benz SL-Class |
Finished in rare blue black metallic and saffron interior(Lack-Code - 199 - blauschwarz/ Polster-Code - 274 - safran), this example represents the very high point of the venerable R107 series. This is a final production year car (Model Year 1989) and at 5547 cc is equipped with the largest displacement engine ever offered in this chassis. (Over its seventeen-year run, the 107 was variously offered in 2.8 L, 3.0 L, 3.5 L, 3.8 L, 4.2 L, 4.5 L, 5.0 L and 5.6 L guises.) Most notably, this is a European specification trimmed (distinguished by its unique bumpers, headlamps, front signal lamps, front and rear number/license plate mounts, rear deck spoiler and the absence of a third brake light) US model car. This matching numbers example has been sparingly driven, covering an average of 2,655 miles per year. As expected, the motor runs effortlessly while the transmission shifts with smooth precision. Outside, the car is in similarly exceptional condition, having been repainted and reupholstered at a cost in excess of US$ 30,000 in 2011. The work was undertaken by a specialist coach builder and restorer of classic motorcars. Receipts detailing work will be included with sale. The car is over 30 years old and is not without imperfection (a few rock chips from motorway debris, wear etc.) The hard and soft tops are incredibly preserved as is the bright work throughout. Car is sold as-is where-as but seller encourages inspection to fully appreciate.Reduction in car collection motivating sale. Over US $4,000 in servicing just performed prior to listing.
