1983 – Mercedes-Benz SL 5.0 Convertible 500SL Automatic (218 bhp) – £20000
Discover a piece of automotive history with this exceptional 1983 Mercedes-Benz SL 500 R107, a true classic that combines timeless elegance with modern practicality. Fully ULEZ compliant, this meticulously maintained convertible has been part of the same family for over a decade, lovingly cared for and recently treated to a comprehensive bare-metal respray that reveals its immaculate condition. Featuring a stunning two-tone silver and grey exterior, brand new 17″ period Penta alloys, and a pristine soft top, this SL is a collector’s dream that’s ready for its next passionate owner.
Mechanically sound and serviced annually, the car boasts Bilstein shocks and springs, a genuine period Mercedes walnut steering wheel and gear shifter, and an engine that runs beautifully. While there are a few minor tasks to complete – such as light seat retrimming and potential brake disc replacement – these are minimal investments that won’t detract from the vehicle’s overall exceptional quality. With sellers now asking up to £100,000 for mint examples, this SL represents an incredible opportunity to own a future classic at a fraction of the price. MOT, tax, and ULEZ exempt, this Mercedes is not just a car, but an investment in automotive heritage that’s waiting to be enjoyed.
