450SL V8

Description

-1975 Mercedes-Benz 450 SL - 56k Miles - Long-Term Ownership, This Historic vehicle is TAX- and MOT exempt, Despite the MOT status the previous owner still made no exceptions.

-A genuine, well-kept 450 SL that's been with the same owner for 39 years before it got to us recently. Finished in white with a matching hardtop and black interior, it remains largely original and mechanically well-maintained throughout its life. The car runs, drives nice , shifts smoothly, contagious V8 symphony , and has a valid MOT until June 2026. A solid, honest R107 that's been garaged, covered, and looked after rather than left to decay.

-56,000 miles from new
-Same owner since 1986
-No invasive rust or corrosion , only a few minor spots.
-Matching hardtop + soft-top, plus detachable wind deflector
-Strong mechanical history with major works over the years
-Original 4.5-litre V8 with automatic transmission
-Battery isolator fitted
-MOT to June 2026

The passenger window motor had recently given up so we supply a replacement, and the rear driver's side small quarter PVC window on the soft top has ripped, and is not a major job to replace , The Soft top itself is in Decent condition , The hard top fits nicely and all the windows are intact , and the mechanisms related to removing and reinstalling the roof still works as it should.

As a 50-year-old classic, it naturally shows signs of age light paint wear, some cosmetic bubbling, some tears on the front seats lower area, and general ageing in places you'd expect on an unrestored car. Nothing appears structural, and overall the condition is very good for its age, presenting as an honest, well-kept example rather than a freshly restored one.

Will post a video soon ,
