Yes, you deserve it. Yes, you should buy it.

This is a 2 Owner, Adult owned FLORIDA car!

The R107 series of Mercedes-Benz roadsters were some of the most successful cars ever produced by the German automaker. Today they remain fantastic cruisers with great performance and an iron-clad reputation for quality and durability. This beautifully maintained 2 owners Burgundy1986 560SL is the one to own with the biggest engine fitted to an R107 and the longest list of standard features. Of course it still carries the instantly-recognizable bodywork that defined almost two decades' worth of SLs.

This astoundingly clean SL is exactly the kind of no-stories car you want to own. There's still a great shine to the paint because you truly did get something exceptional for your money back in 1986 and there's no denying that Mercedes-Benz did put these together with extreme care-just look at the way the panels fit. And until you've slammed the door on one of these over-built tanks you don't know how solid a topless car can be. The beautiful elegant Black interior is largely new including fresh seat cover.

The seats have that firm feeling that only Mercedes seats seem to deliver and all the gauges are fully functional. In fact everything works rare on other machines this sophisticated but common on well-maintained R107s. By '86 just about everything was standard on the SL including automatic climate control a power passenger side mirror power windows cruise control and recent additions like airbags and ABS brakes. The fully lined trunk is fitted with plush black carpets and this car includes both a soft top and removable hardtop and a battery trickle charger. We will also include the Hardtop cradle and Hoist for easy on off install and removal of the hardtop.

Recently serviced with virtually all the receipts the 5.6-liter V8 engine under the hood was a big upgrade in the power department. The engine lights off with a rumbling V8 idle and pulls hard thanks to 227 horsepower and a quick-shifting 4-speed automatic transmission. The engine bay is tidy, but the hood liner needs to be replaced, and shows signs of the recent service work and original details like the painted fender bolts (at the factory the fenders were installed and then the car was painted) and production tag on the radiator cradle remain completely intact. These cars routinely run hundreds of thousands of miles with proper maintenance and thanks to the extensive paperwork with this one you can buy with confidence. Even the tires are relatively recent on near-flawless 16-inch M-B alloy wheels. Even though it's nearly 25 years old this SL commands respect on the road with great performance and sumptuous comfort. Showing up in this car still means you've truly arrived; only you will know how affordable it really is. 

This car has been well maintained all its life, including a long list of recent service items. This car starts right up, runs great and looks great. Is it perfect? No, it is not a garage queen. 

This car comes with 2 keys, tools, top removal tool and the maintenance and owners manual

A rare Windscreen for comfortable top down motoring is included. No messed up hair on arrival.

Mercedes-Benz says no to price premium on S550 PHEV

Fri, Jun 19 2015

The good news? Mercedes-Benz won't be charging any extra for the plug-in hybrid version of the S550 sedan compared to the gas-powered version. The bad news? The gas-powered version is really expensive. The S550 Plug-in Hybrid's pricing will start at a tidy $95,325, the same as the conventional S550, according to Cars Direct. For that price, buyers get a car that delivers 436 horsepower and 479 pound-feet of torque while having the ability to go as far as 18 miles on electric power alone, assuming that the driver in question isn't trying to use all 436 horses. But just in case he or she is, the car can also go from 0 to 60 miles per hour in about five seconds. There's been no word on a fuel-economy rating from the US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) but the sedan gets 84 miles per gallon on the more lenient European driving cycle. It's unlikely to anywhere close to that stateside, but some folks still might feel they got their money's worth (ha ha) by adding a plug. The S550 Plug-in Hybrid goes on sale in California later this month. The model was first unveiled at the Frankfurt Auto Show in 2013 and shown off at the Los Angeles Auto Show late last year.

Watch Schumacher's hot lap of N"urburgring in Mercedes F1 car

Fri, 31 May 2013

In advance of the Nürburgring 24-hour race last weekend, Mercedes-Benz put on a demonstration that had Michael Schumacher playing catch-up in a Formula One car against four examples of AMG metal. There were four cars sent off in staggered starts before Schumacher: an A45 AMG, E63 AMG 4Matic, SLS AMG Black Series, and an SLS AMG GT3 car. "Mr. Formula One," as the German television commentators call him, left three minutes after the SLS AMG GT3.
There are two videos of Schumacher's lap, the first is on-board footage - and even though there were several GoPros on the car the POV never cuts away from the front wing. You can hear the throttle and tell he's not pushing it, you can also tell how bumpy the track is. The second video is footage from the German Sport1 channel - with commentary in German - that shows all the cars taking off and takes the aerial view of proceedings. He looks to be going a lot faster in that one. You can compare and contrast yourself with the videos below.
Oh, and it's worth noting that, even with the likely restricted car, and the made-for-TV environment, Schumi turned in a quick lap. The nose camera shows the F1 car start to slow down on the back straight, near the start/finish line, right around the modern-length track record time of six minutes and eleven seconds.
