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.

new to this platform…..how do i get hold of the owner to chat with….plz help
The owner purchase the Mercedes in February 2020. He’s selling it because of his age. He’s 86 years young, and it’s simply time for someone else to enjoy it.
Overall, the car needs nothing mechanically. It runs and drives very well. The only item that needs attention is the air conditioning. It was blowing cold about three months ago, but it is currently not blowing cold. Other than that, the car is ready to be enjoyed.
Was the timing chain replaced/ serviced??
Air not working I understand…. is it repainted ? If yes, all of it or partially?? Looks great for sure.
