Model history

The R107 series was launched in 1971 as the successor to the "Pagoda" and remained in the Mercedes range for an unusually long time, with a production period of 18 years. Its characteristic features were its angular design, H4 wide-beam headlights, and distinctive rear lights. Technically, the roadster impressed with its robust V8 engines, high level of safety equipment, and comfort typical of the brand. The model was particularly popular in the USA. The R107 was replaced in 1989 by its successor, the R129.
