Mercedes-Benz 560SL w107 5.6L V8 1989

Allmän beskrivning : 56K ACT MILES, 2 SOUTHERN OWNERS, CLEAN HISTORY, FULLY DOCUMENTED, BOTH TOPS, A+

This 1989 Mercedes-Benz 560SL is the one for true collectors. More than just the deep red paint that has a great sunny day shine, this comes with a large maintenance file, low 56,283 mileage (averaging less than 2,000 miles annually,) full features list, and overall fantastic presentation that lets you know this luxury machine has been treated with the respect it deserved since day one.
This 560SL is from the final year for the now legendary R107 model designation. These cars are iconic because they represent an era when very few companies could build a convertible without worrying about safety regulations. Mercedes crafted their cars so robustly that the R107 exceeded these standards, and they did it elegantly without an unsightly roll bar. Today it remains elegant, powerful, comfortable, timeless, and nimble – a classic that can do everything. It was the go-to driver for celebrities, dignitaries, and the wealthy because the sleek lines hid a full size interior and usable trunk that was perfect for any road trip. This one has added value because of the immense care that has been taken to be sure the body lines and trim are pristine. The factory correct Garnet Red has been given a full professional respray in 2007 by Classic Car Motoring (one of the best in the country and $9k back in 2007) to ensure that a sunshine-friendly droptop like this showcases its best and most sophisticated tones on any sunny day. The black folding roof matches so nicely with the bumpers that this car almost has a two-tone presence. And when you want a coupe-like profile, the optional Garnet Red hardtop goes on with true German precision.
The Mushroom tan leather interior has a rich sophisticated tone, and there is arguably no better color combination with the rich red exterior. Not only is it the right color, but also there's more evidence inside that the previous owners understood the significance of this final year R107. It has the kind of pampered life where the dashboard, wood grain center console, and leather seats basically look new. This is a mix on investment in new components and never being left open to the world extended periods. Even the carpets have the kind of plushness that give you pride in ownership. The 560SL was one of the most expensive cars Mercedes offered during its reign, so the features list is quite long. This includes desirable conveniences such as power windows, power locks, power steering, cruise control, provisions for air conditioning, and the correct Becker Grand Prix AM/FM/cassette stereo. There are also more modern features than most R107s, such as a third brake light and a driver's air bag.
The 560SL ruled the road with a large 5.6-liter fuel-injected V8. This was more powerful than a Rolls-Royce of the time, and it delivered its performance just as smoothly. Out on the road, the fully-independent chassis has the perfect balance of elastic comfort and tight-handling. The four-speed automatic transmission also strikes a balance between performance and overdrive comfort cruising. The total package is finished off with four-wheel disc brakes that even include ABS. When you look at the undercarriage photos, this SL looks far tidier than many other cars of its age. This is because you're looking at a low-mileage, two-owner car that has 50+ pages of maintenance receipts. It's this level of consistent careful ownership that results in a car that looks so good even in the places hardly anyone ever sees.
Beyond meticulous maintenance records, this 560SL comes with the original window sticker, title documentation, and the full owner's manual packet – everything you need to continue this car's exceptional legacy. It's becoming more difficult each day to find such quality with mileage like this, and so we don't expect it to stay long in our showroom. Call today!!!

om Mercedes-Benz
I automobilhistoriens krönika utvecklas Mercedes-Benzs resa som en berättelse fylld av uppfinningsrikedom från sina grundande pionjärer. År 1886 skapade Karl Benz Benz Patent Motorwagen, en skapelse som skulle gå till historien som världens första bil. Okunnig om detta markerade stunden början på det som skulle utvecklas till den mest ansedda premium-biltillverkaren globalt. Den ekonomiska grundvalen för detta banbrytande företag tillhandahölls intressant nog av Karl Benz fru, Bertha Benz, vilket visade på ett anmärkningsvärt partnerskap som skulle sätta tonen för Mercedes-Benzs arv.

Inte långt därifrån framträdde en parallell berättelse när Daimler-Motoren-Gesellschaft, grundat av Gottlieb Daimler och Wilhelm Maybach, kom in på scenen. År 1901 avslöjade de sin bil under det nu berömda namnet "Mercedes", vilket betyder "guds gåva" på spanska. Detta namn tilldelades bilen på begäran av Emil Jellineks dotter, distributören för Daimler-Motoren-Gesellschaft. Innovationshjulen sattes i rörelse.

Hoppa fram till 1926, ett avgörande år som bevittnade sammanslagningen av Daimler med Benz & Cie., vilket resulterade i födelsen av Daimler-Benz. Sammanslagningen innebar antagandet av "Mercedes-Benz" som det framstående varumärket för deras bilar och förenade arvet från två visionära enheter till en.

I motsats till uppfattningen om konservatism vecklar sig Daimler-Benzs bana ut som en krönika av branschens första. Från introduktionen av honungskaksradiatorn till flytkarburatorn och den banbrytande implementeringen av fyrhjulsbromsar 1924 pressade Daimler-Benz konsekvent gränserna för bilinnovation. Den dieselkraftade Mercedes-Benz 260 D från 1936 markerade starten för dieselmotorer i personbilar. Den ikoniska Mercedes-Benz 300SL Gullwing gjorde historia som den första bilen med direkt bränsleinsprutning, även om Gutbrods lilla 2-taktsmotor kan göra anspråk på företräde.

Säkerhetsinnovationer blev en kännetecken, med Béla Barényis patenterade säkerhetscell i "Ponton"-modellerna 1951 med främre och bakre deformationszoner. W116 450SEL 6.9 såg införandet av Anti-Lock Brake System (ABS), ytterligare en banbrytande säkerhetsfunktion. Från de första serietillverkade krockkuddarna och därefter fortsatte "första" att etsas in i Daimler-Benzs tyg.

Under sin över hundra år långa resa har Mercedes-Benz inte bara producerat bilar utan har skulpterat ikoner. SSKL, 710 SSK Trossi Roadster, 770K Grosser, 540K Spezial Roadster, 300SL Gullwing, w100 600 Pullman, w111 280SE 3.5 Flachkühler, w113 230SL Pagoda, w109 300 SEL 6.3 och w201 2.3-16 Cosworth vittnar om märkets engagemang för ingenjörsexcellens.

De dånande Silver Arrows, eller "Silberpfeile", inklusive W 25, W 125, W154, W165 och W196, skapade ett arv av dominans på racerbanan. Dessa maskiner var inte bara bilar; de var uttryck för precision, hastighet och en oövervinnelig anda som lämnade sina konkurrenter i dammet.

När Mercedes-Benz går in i framtiden gör det inte bara som en biltillverkare utan som en förvaltare av ett arv, en fackelbärare av innovation och en fyr av bilaexcellens. Vägen framåt kommer säkerligen att bevittna den fortsatta föreningen av toppmodern teknik, tidlös design och ett obevekligt åtagande att sätta nya standarder inom bilvärlden.
