1979 MERCEDES-BENZ 450SL ROADSTER — 43K Miles | Golden Mist | Documented Ownership

A true time capsule from the golden era of Mercedes-Benz—meticulously preserved, low-mileage, and owned with care for decades.

HIGHLIGHTS

• 1979 Mercedes-Benz 450SL

• 4.5L V8 engine

• 3-speed automatic transmission

• Just 43,195 original miles

• Finished in elegant Golden Mist exterior

• Tan interior in exceptional condition

• Arizona/California car — dry climate history

• Garage-kept its entire life

• Owned by the current caretaker for 5 years

• Original tires replaced due to age (not wear)

• Exceptionally clean, well-preserved example

Few cars represent timeless luxury and engineering like the iconic Mercedes-Benz SL—and this 1979 450SL is a shining example of why. Finished in a sophisticated Golden Mist over a beautifully preserved tan interior, this R107 roadster delivers classic style with the unmistakable presence that made Mercedes-Benz the benchmark of its era.

Under the hood sits the proven 4.5-liter V8, paired with a smooth-shifting 3-speed automatic transmission. This combination offers effortless cruising power, perfect for weekend drives or top-down touring. With just over 43,000 original miles, this SL remains a low-mileage survivor that has clearly been treated with care throughout its life.

What truly sets this car apart is its story and condition. Having spent time in Arizona and California, it has benefited from a dry climate, helping preserve both its body and interior. The current owner, now 86 years old, has cherished the car for the past five years, keeping it garaged and maintaining its already excellent condition. The interior remains remarkably clean—free from cracks, wear, or deterioration—while the overall presentation reflects pride of ownership at every level.

This is the kind of Mercedes-Benz collectors look for: honest mileage, strong provenance, and condition that speaks for itself. Whether you’re adding to a collection or looking for a classic you can enjoy right away, this 450SL delivers on all fronts.
