Among these are MOT certificates and invoices, spanning back to 1994 when the odometer read 80,514 miles. Though the mileage’s accuracy lacks solid proof, it is believed to be correct. The invoices in total amount to £1,255.28. The Model: Introduced in 1971 the R107 unleashed a new innovative design and safety features. The V8 engines were a new edition and marked a performance orientated shift for the SL-Class.
