| Condition | An early 1973 Mercedes Benz 450SL roadster R107, Papyrus White with a blue interior. 137K original miles. Two tops. Just came out from an estate, last owner had it since 1984.Chrome wire wheels! A very nice and straight body, an extremely solid undercarriage, except the spare wheel area is rusted out. The paint is old but looks nice overall. Good chrome all the way around. The original interior is all there and looks good but showing its age but there are no cracks on them along with black soft top. Mechanically the car runs and drives. It sat some years undriven in dry storage. Comes with all the original factory books, data card, and lots of service records along with tool kit and a jack. &. |

About this car
This 1973 450SL is offered on eBay by mbvcars in Elyria, OH. The asking price is $14,950. The car is finished in White over Blue, an automatic gearbox. The odometer shows 137,822 miles. On an R107, check the front subframe mounts and the soft-top well for rust, and on the V8 cars the timing-chain guides.
What the photos show
- Cream-white paint looks clean and even in the exterior shots, no repaint bill in view.
- Chrome bumpers and grille look bright, no rechroming cost from what shows.
- Blue seats look clean and well kept with no tears seen, no need to reupholster.
- Blue dash looks smooth and uncracked in the interior shots, no dash bill expected.
- Wire-style wheels are shiny and the tires look good with tread, no immediate tire spend in view.
- Hardtop is present and matches the cream paint, a plus that saves buying one separately.
- The soft top itself is not shown in the sampled photos, so I can't judge its fabric or window condition.
- Trunk floor looks clean under its mat with no rust showing, no trunk repair cost in view.
- No engine bay photo was in the sampled set, so I can't judge engine condition or detailing cost.
- Underside is the problem: a panel under the rear is rusted through with a clear hole, the exhaust is rusty and the front valance shows rust, so budget real rust and exhaust repair.
Money: At $14,950 the clean paint and blue interior look tempting, but the rusted-through underside panel is a major repair bill that should cut the price hard.
