Mercedes 280SL

1980 Mercedes R107 280SL

Classic Car Hire from Caledonian Classics

The SL's hail form an era when Mercedes Benz was a watchword for bullet proof reliability and understated elegance. This car was manufactured to the highest standards and so strong that the Mercedes engineers dubbed it 'Der Panzerwagen', the model was biult for 18 years.

Our R107 280SL can be supplied with a hard or soft top option. It is fitted with the smooth 2.8 litre straight six and mated to a automatic gearbox. The car is a 2=2 with small rear seats with seatbelts.

For those us of who were young adults in the 80's you may remember Bobby Ewing purring up to Southfork in his Mercedes SL or indeed Hart to Hart chasing down villains in theirs.
