This 1973 Mercedes-Benz 450SL is finished in Aqua Blue over tan leather and is powered by a 4.5-liter V8 paired with a three-speed automatic transmission. The car is said to have remained with the original owner until 2021 and now shows 86k miles. Equipment includes a black soft top, 14″ steel wheels with painted covers, fog lights, a body-color hardtop, a Becker AM/FM/cassette stereo, electric windows, and central locking. This R107 is now offered by the seller on behalf of the current owner in Ohio at no reserve with a clean West Virginia title in the current owner’s name.
The car is finished in Aqua Blue (917) and features a body-color hardtop and a replacement black convertible soft top. Additional exterior equipment includes fog lights, a power antenna, and chrome-accented bumpers and trim. The trunk has a rust bubble.
The 14″ steel wheels wear painted covers and are mounted with 195/75 Michelin Radial tires. The car was factory equipped with power steering and power-assisted four-wheel disc brakes.
The two bucket seats are upholstered in tan leather, and interior features include a Becker AM/FM/cassette stereo, electric windows, and central locking. The air conditioning is inoperable, the right side window power-operation function works intermittently, and the driver’s seat height adjustment gets stuck.
The four-spoke steering wheel frames VDO instrumentation including a 160-mph speedometer, a 7k-rpm tachometer, a clock, and gauges for coolant temperature, oil pressure, and fuel level. The six-digit odometer shows 86k miles, approximately 500 of which were added under current ownership.
The 4.5-liter V8 features Bosch D-Jetronic fuel injection and was factory rated at 190 horsepower and 240 lb-ft of torque. An oil change was performed in 2024.
Power is sent to the rear wheels through a three-speed automatic transmission.
