Description
Mercedes-Benz 560 SL | 1987
Highlights:
– 5.6-liter V8 petrol engine
– Automatic transmission
– Including soft top and hard top
The seller offers for sale a Mercedes-Benz 560 SL from 1987, powered by the 5.6 liter V8 petrol engine paired with an automatic transmission. The engine runs and the gearbox operates as intended. A removable hard top, and soft top is included, providing versatility for both open and closed driving. The exterior presents in fairly good condition, showing the elegant and timeless lines that made the R107 series one of Mercedes-Benz’s longest-running models. Chrome details, proportions, and overall stance remain appealing.
Inside, the interior shows clear signs of wear and reflects the car’s age and use over time. Seats, trim, and surfaces would benefit from attention for those seeking a higher cosmetic standard. As such, this example may appeal to buyers looking for a usable classic with potential for improvement rather than a fully sorted presentation.
The Mercedes-Benz 560 SL represented the top specification of the R107 range, combining V8 performance with comfort, safety, and solid engineering. Today, the model is appreciated for its durability, classic styling, and grand touring character. This example offers a solid basis for enjoyment or further refurbishment, with the key mechanical components present and operational.

The description of this car 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.
