*** RECENT PAINT RESTORATION *** NEW INTERIOR *** NEW FABRIC ROOF ***Motor Cars LA is delighted to be able to offer this stunning 1988 SL560 which reflects less than 85,000 miles since new.Recent work on this example include a full paint-correction which has removed a lot of the light wear marks and environmental wear from the last 35 years, a new interior, upgraded In-Car-Entertainment (with Bluetooth) and a new fabric roof.In 1986, Mercedes-Benz shipped its most powerful SL of the decade to the U.S. in the 560SL. The car was also the heaviest of the 1971-89 R107 SLs that Mercedes produced, but the new 5.5-liter V-8 engine's 227hp did a fine job of mitigating that fact. Top speed was much improved (from 110 mph in the 380SL to 130 mph), and the car was quicker from a standstill to 60 mph by about 4 full seconds. The engine was much torquier, too, which greatly improved the cars' dynamics. Likewise, the car received a new rear suspension and a limited-slip differential to better handle the added torque and power. Mercedes-Benz also added anti-lock brakes, leather upholstery, an alarm system, and an air bag, all of which better suited the car's $48,000 price tag.The 560SL sold well with average annual sales exceeding 12,000 units, which outpaced the 450SL and 380SL. Nonetheless, Mercedes retired the R107 chassis in 1990, introducing the first all-new SL in 18 years. Today, many enthusiasts gravitate towards the 560SL as it retains some of the original lines of the pagoda SLs while carrying with it all of the R107's advances. This exceptional example of the highly desirable Sl560 is supplied with the factory hardtop, installation tools, hardtop storage stand, owners handbook, spare parts and all keys.This is an opportunity to acquire an appreciating asset that can be enjoyed for many decades to come.

The designation SL derives from the German Super-Leicht, (English: Super Light). The original idea was suggested by American importer Max Hoffman, who perceived a market for a toned-down Gran Prix car tailored to affluent performance enthusiasts in the booming post-war American market, which remains the primary market for the vehicles.  The SL designation was first applied to the 300 SL, often referred to as the "Gullwing" due to its gullwing or upward-opening doors.  Mercedes-Benz did not announce what the abbreviation "SL" meant when the car was introduced.  Leicht is either "easy" as an adverb or "light" as an adjective in German. Defining a car it has to mean "Light".  It is often assumed that the letters stand for Sport Leicht. One car magazine in 2012 declared that the abbreviation "SL" - "securitized and personally signed by Rudolf Uhlenhaut " meant Super Leicht. This contradicts "Mercedes-Benz 300 SL" of Engelen / Riedner / Seufert, which was produced in close cooperation with Rudolf Uhlenhaut showing that the abbreviation meant Sport Leicht.  Mercedes-Benz used both forms until 2017. It was even called Super Super. On the company website it was called Sport Leicht until 2017 and then changed to Super Leicht.  For a long time it was unclear what intention the company had at the time when assigning the letter combination. It was not until the beginning of 2017 that a chance finding in the corporate archive clarified that the abbreviation SL stood for Super-Leicht  The R107 and C107 are sports cars which were produced from 1971 through 1989, being the second longest single series ever produced by the automaker, after the G-Class. They were sold under the SL (R107) and SLC (C107) model names as the 280 SL, 280 SLC, 300 SL, 350SL, 350SLC, 380SL, 420SL, 450SL, 450SLC, 450SLC 5.0, 500SL, 500SLC and 560 SL.  The more powerful 500 SL with 5.0 liter engine, produced from 1980â1989, was not available in the US. This drove many customers to obtain the car in the "gray market." Finally, a more powerful version was available from the factory, from 1986 to 1989, the 560 SL. It was exclusive to the USA, European, Japanese and Australian markets.

*1988 Mercedes Benz 560SL*Â In 1971 Mercedes was poised to replace their extremely successful âPagodaâgeneration SL sports car. After an 8 year run, Mercedes had sold over 48,000 units with over 30% of them going to the United States. With this in mind, Mercedes set out to design a new SL with its sights squarely set on the US market. What they developed quickly became the ultimate symbol of success in the 1970s and 1980s around the world and stayed in production for over 18 years. In that time, they produced over 300,000 units of which nearly 70% came to the United States. Over the course of the next 18 years, Mercedes changed little about the R107 beyond engine and gearbox choices as they received few complaints about the cars and consistently bested their prior yearâs sales.The ultimate SL from this generation was the 560SL sold in the United States between 1986 and 1989.Â Â This 1988 Mercedes Benz 560SL was sold new at Barrier Mercedes and first sold on 12/28/1987. Finished in a beautiful shade of Diamond Blue Metallic, this 560SL is in absolutely outstanding condition and does not look like a vehicle with 75,914 miles on the odometer. Fitted with its original US-spec bumpers and headlights, this car is the embodiment of what success looked like in the late 1980s. All of these SLs came from the factory with a removable hardtop- many of which have since gone missing. This car not only retains its original hard top but also is being offered with the hardtop stand, so you have somewhere to put it when you want to feel the open air during your drive.Â Â The interior is finished in Royal Blue leather that is paired with dark burl wood trim on the center console and dashboard that is in exceptional condition. In comparison to modern luxury vehicles, the interior of the 560SL is remarkably basic, yet it is elegantly laid out and has everything that you need for a pleasant drive. The stock, original Becker head unit sits in the center stack, above a simple climate control system- with air conditioning that was recently treated to a comprehensive service to make sure it is blowing cold reliably.Â Â Under the hood sits a 5.6 liter overhead cam V8 that produces 227 horsepower and 287 lb-ft of torque. Although the SL was never built to win races, it had gobs of low down torque that made it plenty fast around town and gave it loads of passing power at interstate speeds. Less than 3,000 miles ago, this 560SL was treated to a thorough servicing at Park Place LTD that included new timing chain, new upper timing chain rails, new timing chain tensioners, new cam timing gears, new valve cover gaskets and seals, new drive belts and new spark plugs. This work was done to ensure reliable, smooth running for years to come and is a massive benefit to have all of these things already completed before you purchase the car. At the same time, the fluid in the 4-speed automatic was changed, new differential fluid was added as was new brake fluid and coolant so this car should provide years of trouble free enjoyment for its new owner.Â Â The 560SL was one of the most iconic cars to come out of Mercedes Benz in the 1980s and remains the perfect usable classic car today. Thanks to a whole host of recent servicing, this car would be just as at home being made someone's daily driver, as it would being used as a sunny day weekend car. If you want to enjoy a classic look, outstanding build quality and a quick, torquey 5.6-liter V8, this is the perfect car to add to your garage.Â Â *Additional Information*  * Owners Manual  * Service Invoices  * Maintenance Booklet  * ToolsÂ   * Spare Tire/Jack  * Hardtop Removal Tool  * Hardtop Stand  * Battery Charger  * First Aid KitÂ *Standard Features*  * 5.6-Liter V8    * 227 Horsepower    * 287 Lb-Ft of Torque  * 4-Speed Automatic  * Power Steering  * Power Brakes  * Fog Lamps  * Air Conditioning    * Climate Control  * Cruise Control  * Full Leather Seats  * Burl Wood Interior  * Driverâs Side SRS  * Anti-Theft SystemÂ For more information on this 1989 Mercedes Benz 560SL or any of our High-Performance, Luxury, Exotic, Classic, and Special Interest cars always in stock, contact one of our friendly and knowledgeable sales consultants or always feel free to drop by our 40,000+ sq ft of Indoor Showrooms in Bellevue, WA - Home of an Exciting Inventory of Luxury, Exotic, High Performance and Collectible Automobiles.

To Be OFFERED AT AUCTION WITHOUT RESERVE at RM Sothebys' Munich event, 25 November 2023. rnOffered Without Reserve | ?40,000 - ?50,000 EUR rnrnUS-delivered 560 SL; from the final model year of the R107 platformrnPowered by a 5.6-litre V-8 paired with a four-speed automatic gearboxrnDelivered new to Florida and retained in the United States until 2009rnFinished in its factory-correct pairing of Black over a Palomino Leather interiorrn rnrnThe Sport Leicht portfolio by Mercedes-Benz can trace its roots directly to the zenith of sportscars, the 300 SL. The Gullwing entered production in 1954 and, with the Roadster that followed, the 300 SL platform set the mould for the following generations of SL cars. The Paul Bracq-designed Pagoda roofline signified the second-generation W113 platform, while the SL was reinvented again in 1971. The C107 was introduced in coupe form while the R107 was a two-seat convertible featuring a removable hardtop. rnrnMercedes-Benz devised multiple models under the C107 and R107 umbrella, all wearing similar body styles with names set by engine displacement. The European market welcomed the 2.8-litre 280 SL and SLC as the entry level models, while options for the rest of the world were offered on a greater scale. The 560 SL topped the range, powered by a 5.6-litre V-8 engine, and built between 1986 to 1989 model years for the Australian, Japanese and US markets.  rnrnThe 560 SL offered here was delivered new to Florida in October 1989, where it stayed for two years until it was acquired by its next owner in Baldwin, Long Island, New York. The car left the Sindelfingen factory finished in Black over a Palomino Leather interior, the colour configuration it retains today, and was specified with automatic climate control with Thermo King air conditioning, a Becker cassette player, and a steering wheel-fitted airbag. Exported from the United States in 2009, the car is believed to have since received a replacement odometer showing in km/h.rnTo view this car and others currently consigned to this auction, please visit the RM Sotheby's website.
