300sl

Hello all - I bought a 1992 300SL in which the horn doesn't work. When you depress the steering horn pads there is no current at the twin horns at the front of the car. Needless to say, all fuses are OK. I'm assuming there is a problem behind the steering wheel panel. Question: 1. How do I...

Hello all - I bought a 300SL 1992 with a non-functioning main beam on the dip stalk (the dipped lights work fine). The bulbs and relay work because the main beam will flash when you use the flasher on the stalk - it's just in the main beam position itself that it has failed. Questions: 1...

Looks like a better than average 300SL here. Re-listed, and he'll take under £8k for it. I don't think the loss of the S/h is a big detractor if the condition of the running-gear is in order, and it's thoroughly checked for rust. Here: 1989 MB 300SL ebay

My Father in Law has a R107 300SL which is his pride and joy. Unfortunately the black rubber surround around the rear bumber is looking rather raw nowadays. MB want £130 for a new one. Does anybody have any ideas of where else he might want to look for a better deal? Many thanks, in...

Hello all, Just trying to source a rear exhaust box on my 1988 R107 300SL. I've checked on the Russian site for a part number, and Inchcape can do the part for £187.18, however it shows up as a part for a 250D. Can anyone confirm that the rear box on a 300SL is part number: A 107 490 84 21...

Hi Another sunny day, so decided to take my 1990 300SL (W129) for a run. I decided to give her a quick wash over before setting out. I disconnected the CTEK battery conditioner (always left on), got into car (I alway leave doors unlocked) and started the car - the alarm went off (which I...
