History:

 

Baz Dreamcars proudly presents one of a kind original and unmolested 1979 MB 280SL W107 series. This beauty was originally sold to its 1st owner in Berlin, Germany who drove this beauty just for 3 years and then sold it to its 2nd and last owner.
These 2nd owners then moved out to Florida in the late 1980ies and took this beauty together with themselves and the rest is history. The 280SL stayed its entire life within this family in Florida until we showed up in 2016. The husband had just passed away and his wife had decided to part company with this beauty due too many good memories of this car with her husband. She had given this car to her local car dealer for sale.
This is a superclean, truly outstanding and original 280SL W107 as it gets. Its still the original paint and interior and both show exceptionally well. This SL is almost fully loaded with all desirable options which makes this SL truly outstanding as German cars were never really fully loaded with so many options.
After purchase and return of this car back to its natural habitat in Germany we only had to replace all wear and tear parts on this beauty. Its just too many tiny little bits and pieces to mention them all here. We have spent almost 10.000.-€ in new spare parts and labor which include a complete re-manufactured set of original FUCHS alloy rims with brand new tires worth 2.500.-€ alone. Complete brakes were done new, complete maintenance and check-up of all fluids and liquids was done meticulously as well. A/C was charged with R134a coolant. Original BOSCH Euro Specs headlights were completely re-manufactured with new glasses, new signal light lenses, new gaskets, new reflectors and new springs. Furthermore, frame of headlight was completely sand-blasted and new zinc-coated. Control unit of cruise control had a malfunction and was re-manufactured from a specialist. New hood insulation and other misc. seals and gaskets were replaced all over.
We have all receipts and invoices for all works conducted on this awesome and splendid beauty. This SL is sold with new TÜV and German history registration and Classic Data appraisal.
Please make an appointment with us for a proper inspection of this SL on one of our lifts and a test ride afterwards and you will see that we did not exaggerate with any single detail about the originality and authenticity of this magnificent SL.
It doesn't get any more original, authentic and unmolested than this one here.
