1979 Mercedes-Benz 450SL Roadster W107 Here is the chance to own extremely well kept 1979 Mercedes 450SL. The W107 Mercedes Benz 450 SL was produced from 1973 through 1980. Under the hood was a V8, OHC engine capable to a top speed of over 120 mph and sprint from 0-60 in just about 9.3 seconds. Owning a Mercedes SL gives a person a real driving enjoyment and pride of ownership. When these cars were first manufactured, Mercedes-Benz adhered to construction methods that resulted in a standard that was the envy of the automotive industry. Every Mercedes-Benz model shared a build quality second to none. -Exterior Medium Red (#516H Mittelrot) paint has beautiful shine and luster, and coupled with bamboo color interior this car looks stunning. Car was repainted few years ago and it looks great. All chrome is complete and new looking. This Mercedes is a head turner and conversation piece everywhere it goes. To the best of my knowledge this car is rust free, and its body is very solid and straight as an arrow! This Mercedes comes with both soft and the hard top! Soft top is in very good condition with no rips or tears, and it is very easy to operate. Hard top is in very good condition as well, including all the glass and the headliner which looks nice and clean. Tires are almost new, and this roadster is absolute joy to drive. -Interior Interior is very clean and it is in wonderful condition. Carpet and seats are clean, rips, tears, and stains free and brand new looking!! This Mercedes comes with power windows, and they are working as they should! Just take a look at the pictures, and you will get an idea about the condition of this car, and how beautiful it is. -Engine & Transmission Powerful 4.5 Liter V8 Engine starts up on the first try, and its strong and powerful as day one. Automatic Transmission shifts smoothly and effortlessly through every gear, and this Mercedes has no problems developing speeds of over 100MPH!!!!! (please see pictures). There is no better feeling than driving down the road with the top down, and the wind in your hair and this car is ready to be driven anywhere!!!! Car comes with its original books and manuals, as well as spare tire, tools and first aid kit. Value of this car is increasing from day to day and I am not sure from which investment you will get most enjoyment, if not from the Classic Mercedes-Benz!
