1975 Mercedes-Benz 280 SLC for Sale in the Netherlands

This 1975 Mercedes-Benz 280 SLC is a used car showing 8,191 km. It is equipped with an automatic transmission. The car is finished in Brilliant Red Metallic with a Cream interior.

The C107 stretched the SL into a genuine four-seat coupé, and this 280 SLC has hardly been driven since it was delivered in 1975, its use documented from the very first day. Every panel still carries factory paint, and Gallery Aaldering finds it almost free of wear, the cream leather cabin soft, fresh and clean.

The original owner's manuals are still in their Mercedes-Benz wallet, and the car was ordered with the sliding sunroof, a sought-after option at the time. The dealer says it knows of no other SLC in comparable condition.

The car is located in Brummen, Netherlands.

The Mercedes-Benz 280 SLC uses the 2,746 cc M110 twin-cam straight-six with Bosch D-Jetronic injection, rated at 185 PS (136 kW) at 6,000 rpm and 238 Nm, for 207 km/h; 177 PS on K-Jetronic from 1976, with a four- or five-speed manual or a four-speed automatic, driving the rear wheels. The coupé stretches the SL's wheelbase from 2,460 to 2,820 mm to seat four. It is 4,750 mm long, against 4,390 mm for the roadster.

FAQ

This Mercedes-Benz 280 SLC in the European market

Is this Mercedes-Benz priced above or below the European market?

At €79,500, it sits below the median of €155,000 for the 345 Mercedes-Benz advertised in Europe in 2026. 22% of them are advertised for less. Asking prices are not transaction prices, and specification differences explain much of the spread.

Can this Mercedes-Benz be bought in the Netherlands and registered elsewhere in Europe?

The car is located in Brummen, Netherlands. The dealer quotes it as: VAT included and not reclaimable: sold under the margin scheme. Cross-border purchase is normal for this kind of car, but the documentation, the certificate of conformity, transport and the registration rules of the destination country all have to be settled with the selling dealer first.

How much did this Mercedes-Benz 280 SLC cost new?

The manufacturer's base list price was €20,136 in Germany, excluding options. This car is advertised at €79,500, 295% above that figure. A list price is the launch price of the version without options, so a heavily specified car left the factory above it, and it says nothing about what the car is worth today. That 1975 list price is converted to euros with no adjustment for inflation.

How does the mileage of this Mercedes-Benz compare?

8,191 km recorded, against a median of 14,618 km across the Mercedes-Benz advertised in Europe in 2026. It is therefore among the lower-mileage cars currently listed. Service records and ownership details should be checked against the documents held by the selling dealer.

Which other Mercedes-Benz are priced closest to this one?

a car in Germany at €79,890, and a 2017 car in Germany at €79,900. Observed in 2026. Comparing them means putting model year, mileage, factory options and the VAT basis side by side before the price itself.

Who is selling this Mercedes-Benz 280 SLC, and how does a purchase work?

Gallery Aaldering, a professional dealer in Brummen, Netherlands. LUSSO lists the car and passes enquiries to that dealer; the inspection, the negotiation, the invoice and the transfer of ownership all take place directly between the buyer and the dealer. LUSSO does not hold stock, take deposits or act as an intermediary in payment.

Can this Mercedes-Benz 280 SLC be inspected before purchase?

The car is at Brummen, Netherlands, and an inspection is arranged with the selling dealer. Buyers based in another country commonly appoint an independent inspector or a marque specialist rather than travel. Ask the dealer for the service record, the number of previous owners and any accident history, with supporting documents for the information stated in the listing.
