Mercedes-Benz 280 SLC | 1976
Highlights:

The seller is offering this 1976 Mercedes-Benz 280 SLC. A classic known as a stylish gran turismo coupé, based on the iconic R107 SL but with a longer wheelbase and practical rear seat. Under the hood is the smooth 2.8-liter 6-cylinder engine paired with an automatic transmission, a combination that provides both a comfortable ride and reliable performance. This example is a European car, originally delivered new in Germany, and therefore carries with it the pure Mercedes-Benz heritage of the 1970s.
In terms of appearance, this SLC shows its best side. In 2022, the car was repainted in its elegant red, which contrasts beautifully with the classic interior. Inside, you’ll find a beige interior (with visible damage) with original diamond-pattern upholstery. Original Mercedes-Benz seat inserts are also included, allowing the next owner to further refine the interior to their liking. A stunning example of a timeless coupé that combines luxury, sportiness, and future value retention. The paintwork and interior show some signs of wear.

The description of this vehicle is, to the best of the seller’s knowledge, accurate and not misleading. Route 66 Auctions requests a range of detail about the car from the seller and performs a level of due diligence. However, potential buyers must independently satisfy themselves as to the accuracy of the description.
