Overview

Amari Supercars are proud to present this exceptional 1980 Mercedes-Benz SL, finished in Red.

This example is part of the iconic R107 generation, one of Mercedes-Benz’s longest-running and most respected models, produced from 1971 through to 1989. Renowned for its build quality, timeless design, and everyday usability, the SL offers a refined grand touring experience that remains highly relevant today.

Powered by a smooth 3.8L V8 engine and paired with an automatic transmission, the SL delivers effortless performance through a rear-wheel drive layout. Depending on specification, outputs ranged up to approximately 240 bhp, with strong torque and composed cruising capability, making it ideally suited to long-distance driving.

The exterior reflects the classic proportions of the R107, with clean lines, chrome detailing, and a well-balanced stance that has defined the model for decades. Its understated yet elegant design continues to appeal to collectors and enthusiasts alike.

Inside, the cabin offers a traditional Mercedes-Benz environment, focused on comfort, durability, and simplicity. Designed as a true grand tourer, the SL provides a relaxed driving experience with a clear emphasis on quality engineering.

The R107 SL remains one of the most usable and desirable classic Mercedes-Benz models, offering a compelling combination of heritage, reliability, and timeless appeal.
