1985 Mercedes-Benz 280SL Euro-Spec Inline-6 DOHC Desirable Small Bumpers Solid Driver with New Canvas Top This 1985 Mercedes-Benz 280SL is a true Euro-spec roadster that was imported from Europe and never offered for sale in the U.S. market. Unlike the American 560SL or 380SL counterparts, this 280SL features the dual overhead cam M110 inline-6 engine paired with the sleek and elegant small Euro bumpers not the oversized 5-mph bumpers required for U.S. cars. Its lighter, more responsive, and delivers a driving experience much closer to what Mercedes originally intended. Highlights: 2.8L DOHC Inline-6 (M110) legendary Mercedes reliability and character Imported Euro-spec desirable small bumpers, no emissions clutter Automatic transmission New canvas soft top being installed due to aged plastic windows New stereo head unit and power antenna Cruise control Straight and rust-free body Clean undercarriage Clean title Known Imperfections: Dashboard has visible cracks (common on R107 models) Seat bottoms are worn and will need replacement in the future Idle control valve needed currently idles high AC system condition not mentioned (assume non-operational unless stated) Summary: This is a very desirable R107 SL variant, offering a lighter, more nimble driving experience with its DOHC 6-cylinder and Euro-market aesthetics. Its a solid driver as-is with a strong drivetrain, clean body, and great bones. With a bit more interior attention, this 280SL could easily be taken to the next level or enjoyed immediately as a vintage touring car with unmatched style and pedigree. The 280SL Euro models are increasingly sought after due to their rarity and clean design. This is your chance to own a piece of international Mercedes history with timeless looks and a smooth inline-six under the hood.
