Mercedes-Benz 560 SL + Hardtop 1986

• 1986 Mercedes-Benz 560 SL
• 5,547 cc V8 engine
• Automatic transmission
• Indicated mileage of 58,922 miles
• Well-restored interior and renewed soft top

The Mercedes-Benz 560 SL is one of the most appreciated versions of the R107 generation. The combination of the powerful V8 engine, comfortable automatic transmission and timeless R107 lines has made the 560 SL one of Mercedes-Benz’s most distinctive luxury roadsters.

This example was first registered on 15 September 1986 and is finished in black. The car has an indicated mileage of 58,922 miles and is generally in an older, original condition.

The bodywork was repainted in the past and shows normal signs of use. The paintwork needs attention and is currently in less-than-good condition. The underbody, on the other hand, is original, in good condition and presents honestly.

The interior is one of this 560 SL’s strong points. It has been restored and presents well. The soft top has also been renewed. The tyres date from 2023, are in good condition and, according to the inspection carried out, can still be used for several years.

Mechanically, the car presents well. Both the engine and engine bay are in good, honest condition, and the car has been well maintained. The automatic transmission works well, as do the brakes and handbrake. The electrical system, lighting, axles and suspension are also functioning correctly. The invoice for the most recent work carried out is available.

This Mercedes-Benz 560 SL is now more than 30 years old and may qualify for historic vehicle status in Belgium. In Flanders, vehicles at least 30 years old benefit from a specific flat-rate tax for classic cars. With a Belgian O plate and the required registration, the car may also benefit from the provisions applicable to historic vehicles in Belgian LEZ zones.

Our Oldtimerfarm inspection team has prepared an appraisal report for this car.
