Blue-Black Metallic | Grey Leather | 55,162 Miles £61,995 A beautifully preserved and exceptionally original example of the iconic R107-generation 420SL — one of the final production variants of this legendary Mercedes-Benz roadster, powered by the refined and highly regarded 4.2-litre M116 V8. Finished in rare and elegant Blue-Black Metallic (199) over Grey Leather (278), this car presents in outstanding condition throughout and has covered just 55,162 miles from new.
