Interesting story with it, wonder if it's true....
Any thoughts on how much I should pay for a 1985 (pre facelift) 500SL with only 1 owner and 24,000 miles and full service history.
I've been offered the car, but I'm struggling to decide how much to offer for the car, as it one of the very last pre facelift 107's.....I know that a facelifted...

Well viewed one this evening and it was sitting high all round, tried it in all settings but could not get it to drop. It has self levelling suspension all round with ADS.

Hi
First time user of this site. Having sold my CLK Cab I am now looking at a "classic" 1982 500SL which i have fallen in love with.
It will need a new brown hood.
Is there anything else i need to be looking out for?
Does anyone own one that can provide me with a review - ive looked all...
I have a fairly unique offering here for any interested party.
The car in question is a 1985 500SL with only 24,000 miles from new and one owner and service history.
The car is absolutely immaculate as you would expect and its a petrol blue colour.....in real terms its a bluey/green colour...
I have a set of new calipers, literally mounted on car and then taken off for a 500SL W107 model. The calipers are for the front and are boxed.
Open to offers.
I've been getting two lots of advice on this. Some say 6 months or 6000 miles and others 3 months or 3000 miles. Who is right? Any ideas? Thanks in advance.
The beast is for sale:

Anyone on the forum interested??
From cold, my 1991 500SL tends to hold in gear. Changes are more jerky and pronounced. After a fair few miles, all becomes well.
I have been told that this is a feature of the car, and is necesarry for warming the engine more quickly. Is this bull or not?
Have read somewhere that it could...
I've been restoring my classic Merc. I have installed new Recaros, AMG alloy pedals, Momo steering, new 100% wool carpet! Along with a MAD ice install and some supoer wheels the car is looking lethal! Still needs a bit of finishing off.
I was told i was mad for doing what i planned with my Mercedes 500SL 83 model. What i wanted to do was classed as impossible, fitting a high quality system into such an old car. BUt i'm not the one to listen so i undertook the whole job myself!
My system includes: 4 channel Audiobahn amp...
Currently looking into buying a 1991 500SL.
Does anyone know at what intervals the cam chain is to be replaced? I am led to believe that 100,000 miles is correct.
Roughly how much would you expect to pay for the job to be carried out?
Cheers in advance.
