1989 was the final year and pinnacle of the R107 series, and included such standard features as ABS brakes, SRS airbag and leather seating. Always garaged, pampered and with only 17,487 miles, this SL still has an in-the-wrapper

showroom look and feel. The car runs and drives as well as it looks and comes with all books and records. Finished in " Smoke Silver Metallic" the paint is original and still looks super after 25 years, this car has obviously led a garaged life. The body is arrow straight and the paint is glass smooth.

The fit and finish is first rate and of course the car has no rust issues anywhere.

dams on the 560SL's were prone to damage, this one is perfect. Headlights are the original GE Halogens from new, all lenses look like new with no cracks or fading.

Taillights and trim are all excellent. Even hidden away areas like behind the gas filler door can hold up to close scrutiny.

started the practice of affixing VIN labels to body panels and bumpers, replacement pieces do not carry these labels.

This car has all its labels present The soft top is original to the car and still in great shape, the OE Wopavin branded windows are clear and pliable. Underside looks as good as the top. The soft top cover shows a touched in scratch, if I had to fault the car I guess this is it. The storage well beneath is rust free and spotless. Folding operation and soft top fit is excellent. This hardtop is in like new condition with the exception of 2 small rub marks from where it rested on a stand. Otherwise it has perfect paint, glass, headliner and weatherstripping.

The underside of these hardtops were prone to rusting, not the case here. With the hardtop fitted, these SL's transform into airtight coupes for year round use.

Both the tool kit and factory supplied first aid kit are unused. Engine bay stickers, ID plates and tags are all intact.
