Offered for sale is a 4.5L 1978 Mercedes-Benz 450SL automatic. Coming with no history file, this lot's condition scores 55 / 135.
Classic Car Auctions says:
Offered at No Reserve, this R107 SL would benefit from some TLC...
Dating from 1978, the 230bhp, 450SL was no slouch with 0-60 in 9.7 seconds and 133mph
UK-supplied, right-hand drive car now finished in Nautic Blue Metallic with a matching hard top
Fitted with later Mercedes-Benz 'Starfish' alloys
R107 SLs are fast, comfortable and discreetly understated, and quite valuable in good condition
Some time and a moderate investment would take this Classic Mercedes to the next level
