Hexagon Classics are delighted to present this superbly specified, low mileage, late-production Mercedes-Benz 300SL (R107) model, finished in the classic and sought-after combination of Signal Red with Mushroom leather interior. This elegant roadster represents one of the final evolutions of the iconic R107 series and benefits from all the refinements and improvements made over the model’s impressive 18-year production run.

Originally launched in 1971, the R107 SL became one of Mercedes-Benz’s longest-running and most successful models, admired for its solid build quality, understated luxury, and effortless cruising ability. By 1989, the final year of production, the 300SL had matured into a refined, fuel-injected inline-six roadster featuring improved handling, galvanized chassis, enhanced cabin ergonomics, and modernized styling details, while retaining the unmistakable SL silhouette.

It boasts a very low mileage and has been cherished by previous owners, with the leather interior showing minimal wear. Complementing the very special electrically-operated soft top is the factory hard top, allowing for all-season usability.

The smooth 3.0-litre straight-six engine is paired to a silky automatic transmission, offering an effortless drive that is equally at home on long-distance grand tours or summer weekend jaunts. The Signal Red exterior remains vibrant, a striking match with the period alloy wheels and chrome accents.

Supplied new in July 1989 by Road Range Mercedes-Benz, Liverpool, it is complete with an excellent history file, MoT history, historic tax discs and of course a spare key. It was serviced in June 2025 and has also had a new Michelin tyre set fitted. With its desirable colour scheme, excellent condition, and desirable late-production status, this 300SL is a wonderful example of Mercedes-Benz craftsmanship and a compelling addition to any classic collection.
