1976 Mercedes-Benz R107 450SL Roadster - Australian Delivered - Totally Original & Unrestored - English Red over Biscuit - ONLY 124,100kms - Complete Books & History
We are extremely proud to present an exceptionally rare opportunity to acquire what is undoubtedly one of the finest and most original Australian-delivered Mercedes-Benz R107 450SL Roadsters available today. Preserved in remarkably untouched, unrestored condition, this outstanding example is not only one of the best surviving cars in Australia, but quite possibly one of the most original examples worldwide.
Delivered new through Three Point Star Motors, Kew, Victoria, this beautiful 450SL was first registered to Darrajon Pty Ltd, Heidelberg, Victoria, taking delivery in November 1976. Finished in its factory-correct and highly desirable combination of English Red over a beautifully preserved Biscuit MB-Tex interior, this car remains exactly as Mercedes-Benz intended almost fifty years ago.
Accompanying the vehicle is its original Black factory soft top, matching factory hardtop, and original painted steel wheels with factory hubcaps, completing one of the most elegant and enduring automotive designs ever produced by Mercedes-Benz.
Perhaps the greatest attribute of this remarkable R107 is its exceptional originality. It is accompanied by an extensive history file including its original data card, owner's manuals, service books, plastic document wallet, key code information, spare keys, servicing invoices and supporting documentation accumulated throughout its life. These are the details that serious collectors value most and are increasingly difficult to find.
The original Becker Mexico cassette stereo remains fitted, while the dashboard, switchgear, instruments, interior trim and fittings have all been beautifully preserved without modification. Cars of this calibre are becoming extraordinarily scarce, as originality can only exist once. It is this authenticity that sets this 450SL apart from restored examples and elevates its desirability among collectors worldwide.
Showing just 124,100 kilometres from new, this matching-numbers, matching-colours example represents everything enthusiasts seek in a collectible classic Mercedes-Benz. Beautifully preserved and wonderfully honest, it offers an exceptional opportunity to acquire a genuine investment-grade R107 that can be confidently enjoyed while continuing to appreciate in significance.
The car has benefited from the care of just three custodians from new, each of whom was a passionate classic car enthusiast. Long-term ownership, meticulous maintenance and sympathetic preservation have ensured this 450SL has remained in outstanding original condition throughout its life.
Mechanically, the vehicle has been maintained regardless of cost and is ready to be enjoyed immediately by its next custodian. Having recently passed a Roadworthy Certificate inspection, it requires nothing beyond continued careful ownership.
The R107 SL has long been regarded as one of Mercedes-Benz's greatest achievements. Combining timeless styling, engineering excellence and everyday usability, these elegant roadsters continue to appeal across generations. As demand for highly original, low-owner examples continues to grow internationally, cars with documented provenance and untouched originality are becoming increasingly difficult to source.
Complete with its original books, manuals, delivery documentation and comprehensive history file, this outstanding Australian-delivered 450SL represents one of the finest opportunities currently available. Whether destined for a significant Mercedes-Benz collection or to be enjoyed on weekend drives exactly as Stuttgart intended, this is an example that will continue to reward its next custodian for many years to come.
With the vehicle also being marketed internationally, we sincerely hope this important Australian-delivered example remains within Australia, although we appreciate its rarity will undoubtedly attract interest from collectors around the world.
