The car currently shows 122k miles and was acquired by the seller in 2021. The SL is finished in Silver Blue Metallic (930) over Blue MB-Tex, and power is provided by a 3.8-liter V8 paired with a 4-speed automatic transmission. Recent refurbishment includes a new Navy soft top, new seat covers, new floor mats, new tires, a new fuel pump, new shocks, new idle control valve and relay, new air filter, transmission serviced with new flex discs, a new muffler, new spark plugs, a new Exide battery, new brakes at all four corners, and a complete fluid flush.

The exterior is finished in Silver Blue Metallic (930) with extended front and rear North American bumpers and sealed beam headlamps. No accidents or damage are noted on the included Carfax and the seller reports a fresh coat of polish and clear coat respray in the last year. A two-tone Navy and Red pinstripe can be seen at the beltline of the car. The seller notes a couple small paint bubbles can be found on the body. A new navy soft top was recently installed.
Factory 14″ Bundt wheels wear a silver finish and are mounted with new 205/70 Hankook tires showing 2021 date codes. The factory tool roll is included in the trunk along with a full size spare located under the trunk floor. New shocks and brake pads were recently installed by the seller.
The cabin is trimmed in Blue MB-Tex with color-matched door inserts and carpets. Burl wood veneers accent the dashboard and center console. Equipment includes cruise control, automatic climate control, a Becker head unit, electrically adjustable side mirror, and power-operated windows. The seller notes new seat covers and new floor mats were recently installed.
Instrumentation includes a 160-mph speedometer and a 7k-rpm tachometer as well as a clock and gauges for oil pressure, coolant temperature, and fuel level. The six-digit odometer shows 122k miles, approximately 1k of which were added by the seller over the past year.
The 3.8L M116 V8 was rated at 155 horsepower when new, and power is sent to the rear wheels via a four-speed automatic transmission.

These V8 107s really seem like a great value when compared to the prices of the 560s. Essentially the same car and this one looks clean!

@here4thtimes it doesn't look bad, i had my doubts when i first saw it...
You had my attention at that funky pinstripe

The body and interior look great, but the rust underneath (especially that which cannot be seen) is a concern, as is the oil seepage. The recent maintenance is a plus, but this machine will need a thorough inspection to guarantee there is no rot.
