Description

The Mercedes-Benz 280 SL belongs to the iconic R107 generation, celebrated worldwide for its elegant styling, reliable engineering and exceptional build quality. This 1983 example is in an older, largely original condition, forming a solid base for restoration or mechanical refresh. Finished in its striking red colour with automatic transmission, it represents a stylish classic with great potential.
