The Appeal


One of the most iconic classics of the past fifty years - the R107 is a summation of everything that made Mercedes-Benz truly great. It's a simple fact that during this era, they were one of the best car manufacturers in the world - and with their solid, robust engineering and timeless design, the R107 was undeniably a feather in their cap.

This matching numbers 450SL comes with a USA Title and European import documentation, with all duties and VAT paid in full. Finished in a stylish white-and-chocolate colour combo, it's impeccably handsome, too. This is a true period callback - and well worth any enthusiast's consideration.
