  • Smooth, fuel-injected straight-six producing 182bhp and 176lb/ft 4-speed automatic gearbox
  • Showing just 108,677 miles supported by a good history file
  • Recently maintained by the SL Shop with the most recent invoice for £2,600 covering a comprehensive mechanical overhaul
  • Prior to that it was subject to a cosmetic refresh by the SL Shop invoiced at nearly £5,000
  • With Pagoda prices now out of reach, the equally stylish R107 SL is a very attractive alternative
