7800-Mile 1985 Mercedes-Benz 500SL

This R107 is powered by a 5. 0L V8 paired to a 4-speed automatic transmission and is described as unmodified and still wears its original tires. It is finished in Signal Red with a black soft top over Java leather and includes a color-matched factory hard top. A recent service consisted of an oil change, air conditioning recharge, and new brake fluid, power steering fluid, and coolant. The R107 is finished in Signal Red (code 568) and all paint and body panels are believed to be original with the paint condition commensurate with the low mileage. The factory painted 14� wheels appear clean and wear Michelin tires date coded to July 1984. A matching hard top is included and shown above, while the black soft top is shown in the gallery. The Java leather (code 274) interior shows minimal wear and is unmodified with all equipment reported to function correctly. The air conditioning was recently recharged. The odometer reads 7,800 miles and is believed to be accurate.
