Step into a true icon of motoring heritage the Mercedes-Benz SL R107, a distinguished two seat grand tourer that perfectly blends timeless styling, refined V8 power, and effortless cruising comfort. Built between 1971 and 1989, the R107 series earned its reputation as a sporting convertible, and the desirable 3.5 litre V8 variant delivers a smooth 200bhp, carrying you from 0–60 mph in just 8.5 seconds and on to a top speed of over 130 mph.

Presented here at Autostorico is a beautifully cared for 1978 Mercedes Benz SL350, first registered on 5th January 1978. Finished in elegant Classic White, it is complemented by a striking Black and White checked interior, a wonderfully period correct combination that perfectly captures the character of this era.

Having covered 128,878 miles, this example has enjoyed long term family ownership for most of its life and has been maintained without compromise. In 2012, the car benefitted from a comprehensive overhaul by Mercedes Benz Classic in Stuttgart, including extensive mechanical refurbishment, a new soft top hood, and a full interior refresh comprising seats, door cards, and carpeting.

The vehicle is supplied with a comprehensive history file, including its current V5 registration document, MOT certificates, and supporting invoices.

A superb opportunity to acquire a cherished example of one of Mercedes Benz’s most enduring classics.
