The SL 107 series, which was launched in 1971 as the successor to the so-called ‘Pagoda’ (Mercedes-Benz W113), established a new design line at Mercedes-Benz with its wide-band H4 headlights and large ribbed rear lights. A successor model was developed in the early 1980s but was shelved in favour of the mid-range W124 and W201 series. As a result, the R107 series remained on the market for a total of 18 years. Our 280 SL was delivered new to Switzerland and first registered on 30 March 1983, probably as a demonstration vehicle, by the Mercedes dealership Auto Kaiser AG in Zug. It was delivered to its first private owner on 4 January 1984. With automatic transmission, anthracite Nappa leather interior, power windows, central door locking, ABS and alloy wheels, the signal red convertible was very well equipped. In 2003, with around 71’000 km on the clock, the R107 changed hands to its second owner, who only covered around 7’000 km with the Mercedes over the next 15 years and ensured it was regularly serviced. In July 2018, the 280 SL was taken over by the consignor with 78’533 km on the clock. As the available receipts show, he also took conscientious care of his beloved convertible. Among other things, all three PVC rear windows were replaced in 2021, a new water pump was installed in 2022, the rear brake discs and pads were replaced in 2023, and the solenoid valve of the heating system was replaced in 2025. Numerous receipts dating back to 2003 are available and will be handed over with the vehicle. With 91’000 km on the clock, a complete service history, hardtop (which can be collected by the buyer from the consignor) and soft top, the Mercedes is in very good and extremely well-maintained original condition. The last veteran MOT took place in October 2024, so the R107 can be registered immediately. A must-have for any collector of the Stuttgart-Untertürkheim brand.
