The Appeal

Despite almost four decades having elapsed since production ceased in 1989, the R107 SL remains among the most usable roadsters ever made. Superbly engineered, beautifully built and blessed with some of the most stylish lines ever penned, it's no wonder the R107 is still riding a wave of popularity.

If you're looking to add one to your garage - something we highly recommend - this 1987 300 SL would be a fantastic candidate. It's the post-facelift model, benefitting from a galvanised shell and the well-regarded M103 3.0-litre straight-six engine.

This Diamond Blue example comes with the desirable options of factory rear seats and cruise control. If you love Mercedes-Benz as much as we do, you'll know this opportunity is too good to miss
