The 1984 Mercedes-Benz 380 SL is part of the R107 series, which was produced from 1971 to 1989, making it one of the brand's longest-built model series. Within this series, the 380 SL occupied an important position during the 1980s. The 1984 Mercedes-Benz 380 SL came as a two-seat roadster with removable hardtop and softtop, following the classic SL concept that combines comfort and sportiness in an open body form.
The R107 generation succeeded the W113 "Pagoda" and was characterized by a more angular and timeless design, with an emphasis on passive safety and structural soundness. In the 1970s and 1980s, the series was delivered worldwide, with specific engine variants depending on the market. The 380 SL was positioned as an eight-cylinder version within the range and was available in various markets for much of the R107's production period.
The 1984 Mercedes-Benz 380 SL was built at a time when Mercedes-Benz was strongly committed to quality, safety and comfort. The R107 series was known for its solid construction and was often chosen as a representative convertible within the upper segment. Its long production run and international delivery earned this model a permanent place among the brand's classic models.
During the production period, various technical and detail changes were made within the R107 series. Specimens from the middle phase of production, including the Mercedes-Benz 380 SL 1984, benefit from the further development applied in the years following its introduction. This model was produced at a time when Mercedes-Benz had established a strong reputation worldwide for engineering and durability.
The Mercedes-Benz 380 SL 1984 offered here is a version from the 1984 model year. Further specific details on configuration and execution are based on the information available with this lot. To get a good impression of the lot, we recommend that you come to the viewing day.
