Model history

The Mercedes-Benz R107 (SL) and C107 (SLC) series were produced from 1971 to 1989 and are among the brand's most durable models. The R107 was a two-seater roadster with a hardtop, while the SLC was available as a four-seater coupé with a fixed roof. Both versions were particularly popular in the USA, where around two-thirds of production was exported. Technically and visually, they were tailored to the US market. The SL was the only open-top model from Mercedes-Benz during its entire production run.

      Technik: Der neue SL setzte im Bereich der passiven Sicherheit neue Maßstäbe: Béla Barényis Sicherheitskonzept mit Knautschzonen vorne und hinten und der gestaltfesten Fahrgastzelle – das „Drei-Boxen-Prinzip“ – fand auch im 1971er SL seinen Niederschlag. Das Rückgrat des R 107 war nicht einfach eine verkürzte und verstärkte Limousinen-Bodengruppe wie beim Vorgänger, sondern eine eigenständige Rahmenbodenanlage mit geschlossenem Kardantunnel sowie kastenförmigen Quer- und Längsträgern, deren Besonderheit in unterschiedlichen Blechstärken lag und dem daraus resultierenden definierten Knautschverhalten. Da der SL ein offener Wagen ohne Targabügel sein sollte, blieben als einziges Sicherheitspotential für den Roadster bei einem eventuellen Überschlag die A-Säulen samt Windschutzscheibe. Sie wurden von Grund auf neu entwickelt und erbrachten eine um 50 Prozent höhere Festigkeit als die bisher gebaute Version. Zudem wurde die Windschutzscheibe zur Erhöhung der Festigkeit in den Rahmen eingeklebt. Das ergab eine beachtliche Widerstandskraft beim Dachfalltest, womit der offene Wagen auch ohne Targabügel in den USA zulässig war. Die Heckscheibe im Hardtop war ebenfalls geklebt. LG Tom
