The R107 SL Thread

[vpr]

Can't find a decent UK forum who provides a sub forum for particular models such as the R107.

Without a Sub Forum I any thread gets lost amognst a load of other stuff

So....lets start off ......any 107 SL owners out there? Post up a pic to get us started and any problems/issues (of the car nature)


Anyway Here's mine.....A lovely low mileage...low owner 500. I've had many and regretted selling every one of them.....This one's a keeper

Very nice. Lovely colour and great condition too.

[Candellara]

Absolutely stunning. I have a solid black over black leather 300SL which i keep on pontificating it's sale through lack of time to use her. It's in the PH classifieds but threads and photo's like this make me think that i should just keep it as i'll never find another in that spec

[erics]

ah you bought it in Kent from my friend Lee!

[erics]

that's mine:

















That should do..

Paint corrected and sealed with ple22.

Might be some swisswax crystal rock in there too.

That is me Eric......I decided not to sell on the basis that every time I see one on the road I feel I stop and stare.

I will always have one

Spent a lot of time and money making this special

[erics]

ahahah Lee, am such a tit!

What I want now is a 560 sec..

[erics]

oh and my wheels are nicer than yours

[Candellara]

Here's my beauty and passed the MOT today with flying colours!

That's a very fine looking R107 you have. There is a good R107 sub forum on the Mercedes-Benz-club.co.uk. But you do have to be a member. If you join it will be the best £38 you will spend. I have a 89 R107 in signal red with mushroom interior. Only done 28k miles from new and is my favourite car and will be a keeper. Just won the MB National Concours with it this year so well pleased. I would post some pics if I new how, I'm getting on a bit now, all these new fangled gadgets confuse me.

I might take a look though another £38 does put me off.

Love red, had a 34000 mile red one myself which I sold a few years ago.

If you go to a hosting site such as Photobucket then you can post up here...I'm sure there are other ways but I'm rubbish too

Can't see your pics Pierre.

[911Thrasher]

That's odd because I can see them from my iphone

Strange, I don't see them on my iPad, however when clicking on the link, they go to Thumsnap and appear there.
