Vehicle description

1981 Mercedes-Benz 380SL — Classic Roadster, V8 Power, Timeless German Engineering VIN: WDBBA45A5BB000807 3.8L M116 V8 — 155 HP 4-Speed Automatic Transmission Rear-Wheel Drive R107 Chassis — Produced 1971–1989 2-Door Roadster with Removable Hardtop and Convertible Soft Top 4-Wheel Disc Brakes 14-Inch Alloy Wheels Brown Exterior Tan Leather Interior Power Windows Power Steering Automatic Climate Control AM/FM Radio Central Locking Cruise Control The R107 380SL is one of the most iconic roadsters Mercedes-Benz ever built — an 18-year production run that speaks for itself. This is a car that was engineered to be driven for decades, and at 112K miles, it's proven that point. The 3.8L V8 is smooth, understressed, and built with the kind of over-engineering that defined Mercedes in this era. Brown on brown leather is one of the most sought-after classic color combinations — it ages beautifully and looks right on this car. The removable hardtop gives you a coupe for winter and a convertible for summer — two cars in one. R107 values have been climbing steadily as collectors and enthusiasts recognize what these cars are — the last of the hand-built, overbuilt Mercedes grand tourers. At under $7K, this is one of the most affordable ways to own a piece of automotive history that you can still drive and enjoy every day. A documentary service fee in an amount up to $200 may be added to the sale price or capitalized cost.
