Listing Description

1986 Mercedes Benz 560SL Coupe/Roadster With 2 Tops For Sale The 1986-89 Mercedes Benz 560 SL range is the last version of this legendary model. It is widely acknowledged to be the best of the breed, and the most valuable, sought after model by collectors. In my opinion, the 560SL is ideal car for someone looking to own a classic sports car without worries. Its performance and reliability rival modern cars; its build quality is superior to today's cars, and its value continues to rise. Mercedes' SL (107) Roadster had one of the longest runs in automotive history, from 1973-1989 (17 years!). It was a true "S" Class car, the pinnacle of Mercedes quality; and the 560SL is the finest, most desirable example of this classic model. The 560SL is powered by a bullet-proof, smooth and very powerful fuel-injected, double overhead cam, 5.6 liter aluminum V8 engine coupled to a smooth 4-speed automatic transmission. (Part of the appeal of the 560SL is its incredible power; it rides like a topline Benz and accelerates like a Vette!)This example has travelled only 80k miles and runs and drives absolutely like new. This car is impeccable: interior, floors, trunk and body panels are all in superb condition. The car is dent- and rust free, probably the most important aspect when buying one of these cars. Most importantly, this car is completely original down to the paint and interior. It has a clean CarFax to authenticate its accident-free condition. This rarely seen factory color combination of Champagne Metallic over Biscuit leather with a deep Brown soft top is strikingly beautiful. The car comes with both hard and soft tops, power steering, power disc brakes, automatic transmission, A/C, power windows, and a Sony CD/AM/FM Stereo. It also has an integrated top-of-the-line alarm system and premium amplifier system. If you're specifically looking for a 560SL, you already know what they're all about. But if you're new to the range, the 560SL is a true classic car that you can use daily, that will be reliable and safe, that is a convertible in the summer and a true weatherproof Coupe in the winter, and that will increase in value continually (if you take care of it). There are few choices for a usable classic car better than the 560SL and very few nicer than this car.Located In Mattituck, NY Trim: SLBody Style: CoupeCondition: UsedCertified: 0Fuel Type: GasolineOptions: Leather Interior Surface
