The 560SL is the Mercedes-Benz R107, everybody seems to want. But the R107 is more than that, an early 450SL or even a manual 350SL can be as much fun to drive. The same is true for the SLC, where a 350SLC or even the underpowered US 380SLC can be enjoyed as much as the 500SLC. Last updated in April 2023, this guide tells you everything you need to know about the R107, its history and its various engines from the 350SL/SLC to the 560SL 6.0 AMG. It also explains in detail their chassis number and data card and offers you a comprehensive buyer's guide. Superb recent non-Daimler AG color photography highlights many of the cars' features, this includes pictures of the suspension. These are some of the topics covered:
  • The development of the R107 and C107 from the 350SL to the 560SL and 500SLC
  • A rotary piston engine
  • The 1980 facelift
  • The 1981 engine update
