A Mercedes-Benz R107 with Only 134,000 Kilometers
The Mercedes-Benz R107 has been a highly sought-after classic for years — and with good reason. An SL offers comfort, style, reliability, and that unmistakable sense of completeness that only Mercedes could deliver in its golden era.

The example presented here is a particularly fine illustration of what a proper R107 should be. This is an original European-delivered 280 SL with just 134,000 kilometers and finished in a timeless specification: Classic White over the iconic Mercedes upholstery that instantly evokes period-correct luxury. It is an SL in remarkably clean condition.

The exterior presents beautifully, with glossy, well-preserved paint, crisp bodylines and very good panel fitment. Showing only minimal signs of use, this SL promises many more years of spirited motoring. The interior is equally well-preserved, displaying the correct factory details and a dashboard in excellent condition — a testament to careful ownership.

Mechanically, this Mercedes is well cared for with proper documentation. The engine runs smoothly, the automatic transmission shifts effortlessly, and the car drives exactly as a well-kept R107 should. Recently, the SL received a new soft-top and a fresh transmission overhaul, ensuring peace of mind and long-term enjoyment for its next custodian.

Introduced in 1971, the “new” Mercedes SL — internal code R107 — remained in production until 1989. An impressive 18-year production run, making it one of the longest-running model series in Mercedes-Benz history. More than 237,000 units were built, and today the R107 is regarded as a highly desirable classic. The reasoning is simple: craftsmanship, durability, and the unmistakable aura of German engineering excellence.

True to its name — Sport Leicht — the SL blends refined power with touring comfort. Strong engines, proven mechanicals, superb suspension quality, and a level of versatility that makes it equally at home on relaxed coastal drives or long-distance continental touring.

If you are interested in this beautifully preserved R107, we invite you to contact Gallery Aaldering today. Active since 1975, we have extensive experience exporting our vehicles worldwide — please inquire about international purchase options.
