1983 Mercedes-Benz R107 | Brentwood, Essex

The Mercedes-Benz R107 is a two-seat roadster built from 1971 to 1989, known for relaxed grand touring comfort and solid construction. It was the only open Mercedes in the range for nearly two decades. This 1983 car is finished in silver blue with a blue interior, a matched pairing that looks calm and polished in a frame. The cabin is plush and well kept, and the car is in very good condition. Chrome detailing runs along its clean lines, and the 2800cc straight-six under the bonnet gives it an easy pace. With the roof up the car looks neat and closed; with it down, the occupants are in full view. Fashion, editorial and photography work gets chrome and smooth body lines that catch the light. It sits naturally in 1980s film and TV scenes, and the open cabin suits music videos and advertising where the people inside need to be seen. Weddings and personal hires get an elegant open car for the day. It is based in London, Essex.
