1988 Mercedes-Benz 300 SL

1988 Mercedes-Benz 300SL

Completely original & mint condition

77.750 miles only

We've had a few of these 107's over the years and this is one of the most original and unmolested versions we have ever come across !!

Supplied by Malaya Garages in October 1988 ( one of the latter versions with the more comfortable seats ) and still has the original key fob on the one of the two sets supplied

Obviously all original book sets are here and the folder to keep them safe too, plus the tool kit, first aid kit & warning triangle

A new set of MB overmats have been supplied to keep the carpets in immaculate condition

The Blaupunkt Paris RCA 42 still sits in the fascia working nicely, (if you can't work it out the manual is in the book pack too), as does the electric aerial

Finished in Deep Blue with Grey Karo Sports Check trim to the interior - she is almost unmarked

The optional rear seats were selected ( a popular extra in period ) which have lap belts for safety - & if not needed they fold down so that the space can be used for extra stowage if you are on a touring trip

The walnut veneers are superb, as are all chrome items inside & outside

Wheels are unmarked, soft top hasn't lost any of its' colour & the vinyl windows are not yellowed or milky

Similarly the hard top looks like its' been left on a stand all of its' life it is so clean - yes the engine bay is up to scratch too

She does have a Stainless Steel exhaust system with quite fruity tail pipes - which not only look good, but sound good as well

Last but not least, she has been fully undersealed !

The last owner, known to us from friends of many years, bought her to reminisce as his grandma had a similar version in period & so he kept her for a couple of years or so & she sat next to his Aston Martin Vanquish in his underground garage

Prior to that a local chap to him had owned her most of her life - the previous owner even used the same garage for his annual servicing to keep the history nice and tidy !

Not much more to say, except this a smashing example which has been clearly much loved through out her life
