all will fit SL or SLC

As far as I know the shock absorbers need to be undone to do the front subframe bushes on a 107 (280SL) . I am having the latter job done and wondered about changing the sh. absorbers while its in bits. I note however that even with 20% discount they are £332 a pair from an MB dealer. Does...
My 1984 280SL is fitted with non-standard 15" wheels and 205/65/15 Pirelli P6000 tyres. I would be grateful for any feedback re the sort of tyre pressures others have found best. NM
Well thay are at this price.

The weather has been cold, no very cold and its been harsh on our old R107’s. Mine is at 1972 350SL. I try to drive mine twice a week to keep things ticking over. But as of late I have noticed difficulty when pulling away after starting but after a few minutes of careful driving revving and the...
Hi all, we have an enquiry from a customer of our's. They are a very good indy (all used to work here) and are having trouble fitting the torsion springs on the boot lid on a 107 as per picture. There is a workshop tool for fitting these as they have to be under load when fitted. Does anyone...
Now that my 1982 500sl is a usable everyday car I fancy getting a hard top for it as the original has been lost prior to my ownership.
So anyone know where I can get my hands on one, preferably in blue, but not too fussed as I can have it painted.
Thanks
Max:)

Problem started when I noticed the radio got servere interference when side/lights were switched on. Found offside rear side light was out, but not registering on the bulb out warning light. Changed bulbs (the torpedo shaped ones in aclamp connector) but no joy.
Have checked bulbs - OK

I need a couple of rear 1/4 panels and two sills for a 350SL circa 1980. Managed to track down 2 sills from Hardians but the rear quarters are causing some concern. Mb do them but at £485 each plus vat. Looking for a more cost effective alternative. Can anyone help?
Hi!
123's side mirrors look similar (identical) with 107's mirrors. Can 123's side mirrors be used on R107 (SLC)? My SLC got vandalised and mirror on driver's side now only "glued" to the car (right side drive). I found a 123 mirror and would like to replace the broken one. Any experience?

Going to look at a 107 SL later in the week. I have always liked the cars. A rich schoolfriend's parents had a signal red 350SL in the '70's (when we had a poo brown Maxi) & I was pretty much hooked. Actually prefer the look of the SLC but those all nearly all gone.
Anyway,
What's the...
