We are proud to offer for sale a 1988 Mercedes Benz 560SL Convertible that has been meticulously cared for by just 2 owners since new! Currently, this beautiful Mercedes Benz has only 25,210 actual miles on the odometer and is in excellent, all original condition. The example shown here displays a superb color combination of Black over a Light Brown leather interior and comes with original owner's manuals, build sheet, delivery forms, tools, original hardtop, top wrenches, as well as, all 3 factory keys. A real time capsule investment and fantastic addition to any luxury collection!
About Our Mercedes Benz 560SL For Sale:
Already made popular by the earlier designs, the new “R107” chassis SL quickly gained in popularity and sold exceptionally well in the US market. Due in part to its popularity and timeless styling, the R107 generation SL remains, even today, the longest running Mercedes SL body style with production models built from 1971 all the way to 1989!
Finished in elegant and highly desired 040- Black (Schwarz) with all an original and stunning 274- Light Brown leather interior, this well kept, low mileage Mercedes Benz 560SL is equipped with a 5.6L fuel-injected aluminum V8 engine producing 227hp and 279 ft lbs of torque! Options include a 4-speed automatic transmission, matching auxiliary hard top and original Black soft convertible top. Additional options include climate controlled air conditioning, full dash instrumentation with temperature gauge, original Becker Grand Prix cassette stereo radio, power antenna, first aid kit, power steering, power disc brakes, cruise control, fog lamps, power windows and locks, power adjustable passenger mirror, anti-theft system, dual illuminated vanity mirrors, rear window defrost, all insulated glass, Anti-Lock Braking System, 15” forged light alloy wheels with Pirelli P6 all-season radial tires, and Mercedes carpeted floor mats!
This classic and increasingly desirable Mercedes 560SL roadster has been wonderfully well-kept, is in excellent mechanical condition and is ready to drive anywhere! The first owner purchased the 560SL from Dave Ostrem Imports in Urbandale, IA on January 30, 1988. This luxury vehicle was perfectly maintained by the same owner through August 1993 before it would sell to its only other owner with just 5,660 miles on the odometer. This nearly perfect 560SL would remain in this owner's meticulous care for the next 27 years, making this a 80s Mercedes Benz a prime investment grade example! Today, the odometer reads only 25,210 actual miles. Most service history has been properly documented by in the original maintenance booklet shared between the original selling dealer and Tri-Star Mercedes-Benz here in Ellisville, MO.
The basic servicing has been carried out by Combs Auto Service & Tire Center since 2016. The most recent being an oil change and a/c system service check this May 2020. We are proud to represent a beautiful 560 SL model that continues to perform outstandingly! The vehicle will sell complete with 2 standard keys, 1 valet key, all original owner's manuals, stamped warranty booklet & warranty guide, instructional cards, factory tool kit, untouched original spare tire, original build sheet, shipping documentation, two original top latch wrenches, front license plate bracket, and perfectly clean CarFax report. For the true Mercedes enthusiast there will be few such well cared for roadsters to invest in!
