Mercedes-Benz 560 SL + Hardtop '86

• Mercedes-Benz 560 SL from 1986
• 5,547 cc V8 engine
• Automatic transmission
• Indicated mileage of 58,922 miles
• Beautifully restored interior and renewed soft top

The Mercedes-Benz 560 SL is one of the most sought-after versions of the R107 generation. The combination of a powerful V8 engine, comfortable automatic transmission and the timeless lines of the R107 made the 560 SL one of Mercedes-Benz’s most distinctive luxury roadsters.

This example was first registered on 15 September 1986 and is finished in black. The car has an indicated mileage of 58,922 miles and is generally presented in an older original condition.

The body was repainted in the past and shows normal signs of use. The paintwork requires attention and is currently in a lesser condition. The underside, on the other hand, is original and in good, honest condition.

The interior is one of the strong points of this 560 SL. It has been restored and presents very well. The soft top has also been renewed. The tyres date from 2023, are in good condition and, according to the inspection, can still be used for several years.

Technically, the car presents well. Both the engine and engine bay are in good, honest condition and the car has been properly maintained. The automatic transmission works well, as do the brakes and handbrake. The electrical system, lighting, axles and suspension also function correctly. An invoice for the most recently completed work is present.

This Mercedes-Benz 560 SL is now more than 30 years old and can qualify for classic car status in Belgium. In Flanders, vehicles aged at least 30 years benefit from specific flat-rate classic car taxation. With a Belgian O-plate and the required registration, the car can also benefit from the applicable regulations for classic vehicles in Belgian LEZ zones.

Our Oldtimerfarm inspection team has prepared an expert report for this car.
