The Mercedes-Benz SL-Class is renowned for being one of the finest grand tourers that you can buy. A grand tourer is a car that’s meant to offer effortless long-distance cruising abilities, with a healthy dose of performance and plenty of luxury. Clearly aimed at the well-off, these cars are status symbols and icons of success, too. Take the R107 Mercedes-Benz SL-Class as a prime example. You’ve probably seen this model in countless movies and sitcoms from the Seventies and Eighties. Hollywood’s love affair with the R107 is well-known, with many stars of the period choosing to buy and drive one as well. Of course, the R107 was well-received in its home country of Germany too. This is one such example: a 1984 Mercedes-Benz 280SL that’s reportedly been imported from Germany. The car is said to have 95,000 miles on the clock and a recent oil change, plus some mechanical refreshments.
The first thing that’ll strike you about this navy blue 1984 Mercedes-Benz 280SL is its lack of the more common North American-style elongated bumpers. Since the car is a German import, it comes with the sleeker slimline bumpers that other markets, including Germany, got. Furthermore, you’ve got a matching hard top as well as a soft top, so this is truly an all-season car. The interior of this 1984 Mercedes-Benz 280SL is another indicator that this isn’t an American-market car because you’ve got two small rear seats as well. American market cars replaced this with a padded luggage storage area to augment the car’s decently sized trunk. Other features of note include dual-zone climate control with air conditioning and a Becker Mexico radio cassette player. There’s another distinctive feature that you may have noticed, but we’ll talk about that in the next section.
Under the hood lies a smooth 2.8-liter six-cylinder powerplant, factory rated for around 182hp and 176lb-ft. But the car’s most defining feature is something that reportedly wasn’t offered in North America: a five-speed manual gearbox! Yes, you’ll most likely have noticed this in our interior pictures. The engine uses Bosch K-Jetronic mechanical fuel injection. Other highlights include independent front and rear suspension, recirculating ball power-assisted steering, and front plus rear power-assisted disc brakes.

The Mercedes-Benz SL-Class legacy began in 1954, with the gorgeous 300SL Gullwing. Its breathtaking lines and exciting performance made it a real treat to behold. Mercedes-Benz followed up in 1963 with the W113, also known as the Pagoda due to its roof shape in hardtop form. This particular 1968 Mercedes-Benz 280SL is a convertible, however it does come with a nice little surprise too. It’s also a Euro-Spec version that was repainted around a decade ago.

But in terms of style, it's hard to beat the classic designs, such as our featured car.

One of the smartest classic cars to own and drive on a regular basis has got to be a Mercedes-Benz SL from the R107 generation of 1971 to 1989. These cars were Hollywood darlings when they were new, and over 300,000 were sold worldwide. It’s estimated that 68% of these ended up in the United States, as official or gray market imports. That’s why getting your hands on one isn’t that hard. This Florida-based 1975 Mercedes-Benz 450SL is one great example. The car has got 86,100 miles under its belt, and has received some new components to keep it driving as sweetly as it did back when it was new.
One of the most legendary members of the Mercedes-Benz E-Class lineage is the W124 generation. This generation came about in 1984, and was made until 1995 as a sedan. Other variants carried on until as late as 1997. The W124 is widely considered to be one of the most solidly-engineered Mercedes-Benz models; it’s not uncommon to see them being used as taxis in some African countries to this day, braving elements such as desert sand, scorching temperatures and of course, limited availability of spare parts. We did get the W124 in the United States as well, and today, we’ve got a nice 1992 Mercedes-Benz 300D from Virginia for sale. This car has got 131,410 miles on the odometer, but that’s a mere stroll for a W124. You really should buy it because it’s a car that will become a classic very soon; yet is modern enough to drive around regularly. The car is said to be all-stock and has received a recent service.
