Frequently Asked Questions about the Mercedes-Benz 560 SL
The Mercedes-Benz 560 SL was built from September 1985 to August 1989 and was sold in the United States for the 1986 through 1989 model years. It joined the R107-series SL, in production since 1971, as part of a range revision that also brought the 300 SL and 420 SL. It stayed in the lineup until R107 production ended, so no later model years exist.
Mercedes-Benz built 49,347 examples of the 560 SL, according to the Mercedes-Benz Classic archive, a figure also given by Sports Car Market and RM Sotheby's. The R107-series SL was produced at the Sindelfingen plant in Germany, where 237,287 roadsters were completed between 1971 and 1989, so the 560 SL accounted for roughly one in five of them.
The Mercedes-Benz 560 SL used a 5,547 cc single-overhead-cam V8 from the M117 engine family, with Bosch KE-Jetronic fuel injection and a four-speed automatic transmission. Mercedes-Benz calls it a 5.6-liter engine, created by lengthening the stroke of its 5.0-liter V8, while some sources call it a 5.5-liter. The factory lists output as 170 kW, which it gives as 230 hp, and US-market sources quote 227 hp.
No, Mercedes-Benz did not offer the 560 SL in Europe. Its archive describes the car as an export model for North America, Japan and Australia, and in the home market the 5.6-liter V8 went only into S-Class sedans and coupes. The export engine had a catalytic converter and was detuned for those countries' emissions rules, so it made less power than the 245 hp 500 SL sold in Europe from 1985.
A 560 SL carries the exterior changes Mercedes-Benz made to the R107 in its 1985 revision: a front air dam and larger 15-inch alloy wheels. US-market cars also have a high-mounted third brake light on the trunk lid, which earlier R107s did not. The air dam and wheels were shared with the other R107 models of 1985-1989, the 300 SL, 420 SL and 500 SL.
Yes. Anti-lock brakes and a driver's airbag were part of the 560 SL's equipment, along with a limited-slip differential, according to Hagerty and the marque specialist The SL Shop. Mercedes-Benz's own data sheet lists the anti-lock system and a rear axle with starting-torque and braking-torque compensation, and Hagerty describes a new rear suspension with anti-squat geometry.
The R129-series SL replaced the 560 SL and the rest of the R107 range. Mercedes-Benz presented the R129 in March 1989, while R107 production continued until August of that year. The last R107 built, on August 4, 1989, at Sindelfingen, was a 500 SL that went to the Mercedes-Benz Museum, closing a production run of more than 18 years.
The 24 Mercedes-Benz 560 SL listings on Classic Cars Arena right now are priced from $9,395 to $57,995, with a median asking price of $21,448. These are the prices sellers are asking today, not sale prices, and the figures change as cars are listed and sold.
