The seller offers for sale a 1979 Mercedes W107 350SLC with a 3.5-litre V8 petrol engine and automatic transmission. Originally delivered in Spain, this coupe has been lovingly maintained, featuring a professional respray completed about ten years ago. The body shows no visible corrosion, and the chrome bumpers display only light age-related wear. The current owner has continued regular maintenance with oil and filter changes, suspension bushing replacements, and a valid Spanish ITV inspection. The car starts easily, runs quietly, and the gearbox shifts smoothly without noise. The leather interior remains in good condition with natural patina; seats are regularly treated with beeswax, and all electrical instruments function correctly. The air conditioning system has been removed but all original components are included. This well-kept Mercedes shows no accident history or damage, offering classic coupe style combined with robust V8 performance.
Produced between 1971 and 1981, the Mercedes-Benz 350SLC belongs to the C107 series, the hardtop coupe version of the famous SL. It combines long-distance comfort with sporting refinement. Powered by the dependable 3.5-litre V8, the SLC delivered smooth, confident performance and effortless cruising ability. Today, it is appreciated for its elegant proportions, durable engineering, and timeless 1970s luxury feel. Collectors value the 350SLC for its build quality, refined drive, and lower production numbers compared to the convertible SL models, making it an attractive choice among classic Mercedes enthusiasts.
