1986 Mercedes-Benz 560SL

Description

Beyond the smooth V8, two tops, low mileage, great upgrades, and plenty of custom touches, this 1986 Mercedes-Benz 560SL shows an exceptional care in every detail. In fact, we all would easily pay extra for the peace of mind that comes with knowing the previous owners loved it as much as you will. Which is why the affordable pricing makes this one irresistible.

The moment you laid eyes on this one, you knew it was distinctive. It starts with the paint. It's a nice application of the Aubergine color, and so it has the right gloss you want in a sunshine-friendly droptop. And on those few times when the weather isn't ideal, you have the choice between a color-matched hardtop, and a black folding soft top that nicely coordinates with the black bumper trim. The front end has the Euro flush-mounted headlights, and a golden tri-star smile. There's plenty of custom gold pinstriping that follows all the way down the profile. That coordinates nicely with the gold emblem in the AMG 17-inch alloys. And have you noticed how the body kit gives it a much sleeker look? It all ends with a sporty spoiler and more of the premium golden touch. So no matter if you are looking at this one from the front, side, or rear, there is a uniform and premium appearance.

It's hard to find a better color combination with the deep exterior purple than a tan leather. This convertible is made for individual luxury, and you know it the moment you sit in the bucket seats that are power adjustable for perfect comfort. The ultra low mileage (averaging less than 1,110 miles annually) means little time to even crease the seats. Plus, this one has been given white-faced gauges to give you a clear view of everything that's going on. You also get all the right luxuries, like power windows, power steering, and cruise control. This car also comes with the right features such as air conditioning and the desirable Becker AM/FM/cassette stereo. Because this was built 1986, there are also more modern safety features than most other R107s, such as anti-lock brakes, a third brake light, and a driver's air bag.

Under the hood is the original numbers-matching fuel-injected 5.6-liter V8. The 560SL was really the car to have from the R107 period because it combined a powerful motor with a reputation for bulletproof durability. And as you pour through the maintenance receipts, you can really tell the level of care and investment in this low-mileage classic went well-beyond the basics. But all you really need to know is that out on the road, this luxury convertible strikes the perfect balance between nimble machine and all-weekend cruiser. That's thanks to a specially engineered fully independent suspension, four-speed automatic transmission with overdrive, and four-wheel disc brakes. They all work in harmony to provide a true luxury experience that has been the envy of other car makers.

The sale comes complete with the owner's manual and the aforementioned large maintenance record file. With this must distinction at an affordable price, we know this one will be going quickly. Call today!!!
