The Mercedes-Benz 450 SL is one of the most recognizable roadsters of the R107 generation. With its elegant lines, comfortable character and large-displacement engine, it is a classic Mercedes with timeless appeal.

This example was first registered on 15 September 1974 and is finished in grey. The 4,520 cc engine is paired with an automatic transmission. The indicated mileage is 120,900 km.

The car provides an interesting basis for further improvement or restoration. The bodywork was repainted in the past and shows signs of use. The convertible top has been renewed and a hardtop is also included with the car. The engine bay shows signs of an older restoration and has recently received further work.

Our Oldtimerfarm inspection team has prepared an inspection report for this vehicle.
