Kickdown's Take
by Moritz NiemannThis R107 is a rare early U.S. model, still featuring small bumpers and the 4.5-liter engine. The SL, in a beautiful color combination, has been restored; among other things, the engine has been overhauled and the interior refurbished. Today, it’s in excellent condition and is a true collector’s item, perfect for fans of open-top Mercedes.

Comments of this past auction
Technik: Die SL-Baureihe 107, die 1971 als Nachfolger der sogenannten „Pagode“ (Mercedes-Benz W 113) auf den Markt kam, begründete mit den Breitband-H4-Scheinwerfern und den großen geriffelten Rückleuchten eine neue Gestaltungslinie bei Mercedes-Benz. Eine leichte Keilform deutete auf eine verbesserte Aerodynamik hin. Verantwortlicher Designer dieser Serie war erneut Friedrich Geiger, der bereits für die zeitlosen Schöpfungen des 300 SL (einschließlich Roadster) und des Mercedes-Benz 500 K verantwortlich zeichnete. Das Erscheinungsbild des R 107 war stilprägend für das Mercedes-Benz-Design in den 70er Jahren. Viele Details finden sich auch in der 1972 vorgestellten S-Klasse, dem Mercedes-Benz W 116. Wie bereits beim Vorgängermodell stellten die USA den größten Absatzmarkt. Der überwiegende Teil der Fahrzeuge war mit den großvolumigen V8-Motoren ausgestattet. Die A-Säule war für Überschläge besonders fest ausgelegt, ein Airbag war seit 1982 erhältlich. LG Tom
