1980 Mercedes-Benz R107 | Woodbridge, Suffolk

A 1980 Mercedes-Benz R107 SL, the two-seat roadster that carried the marque's open-top cars from 1971 to 1989. It is known for relaxed grand-touring comfort and a solid, well-built feel, and the range pairs a fabric roof with a detachable hardtop. This car is the SL 350 in Signal Red with a black interior, and its condition is very good. The 3.5-litre engine suits the unhurried character the model is liked for, and the long bonnet gives it presence in frame. Advertising and photography work gets a vivid red body against a dark cabin. Fashion and editorial shoots get an open cockpit with driver and passenger in clear view when the roof is down. Film, TV and music video productions set in the 1970s or 1980s get the right period shape, and events can use it for arrivals. Weddings and personal hires suit it too, and it is based in Woodbridge, Suffolk.
