The classic 560SL was the final version of Mercedes-Benz's landmark 107 series 'coupe/roadster.' It featured always-admired styling, typical Mercedes engineering and all the mechanical upgrades made over the years, evolving a bulletproof 5.6 liter V8 drivetrain, effective A/C, driver's airbag and ABS brakes. They are fabulous, reliable cars capable of high-speed cruising that can be easily serviced in any city and have modern safety features—plus that year-round capability with a snug hardtop.
Many 560SLs are well past a quarter-million miles today, but this Florida car still has only 92K—one family had it for 18 years. It has a clean CarFax report with no past accident issues and has been well maintained over the years. Receipts show regular oil services and in the last couple years the car has gotten over $10K in work including new battery, A/C blower & compressor with updated refrigerant, new ball joints, coolant hoses & belts, steering box, alignment, brake lines, pads & rotors, shocks and new Pirelli tires.
The black convertible top was recently replaced, the interior is inviting and the car runs & drives very well. The silver paint looks great and combined with the gray interior, gives a classy look. We have the owner's books and the original spare is still in the trunk. Ultra-low-mileage 'garage queen' 560SLs command prices over $60,000 today, but they aren't any more fun to enjoy a weekend with than this car is for less than half the investment! You can put 5000 miles of fun on this car and not affect its value at all.
If you are considering one of the classic or collectible cars on our website, be assured that coming for a personal visit to inspect first-hand the car that has captured your fancy is very welcome. We practice transparency in all of our descriptions, but believe that nothing is as convincing as seeing and touching the car yourself. Plan a few hours, so you can see, touch, feel and drive the car, and enjoy a tour of our restoration shops to see 'where the magic happens.' If your schedule is too committed, we also welcome a knowledgeable agent visiting for you. Please understand that sales are final, so the time for all due diligence is before you buy. Our cars are sold AS-IS, since most are on consignment from owners. We follow FTC guidelines for all sales and certainly want our future clients leaving more glowing reports among our reviews!
