1976 Mercedes-Benz SL 280 for Sale in the Netherlands

This 1976 Mercedes-Benz SL 280 is a used car showing 73,952 km. It is equipped with an automatic transmission. The car is finished in Light Ivory with a Saffron interior.

After 45 years spent on the French Riviera, this R107 still wears its first coat of Light Ivory. It is a European-specification car, with the slim chrome bumpers and the European headlamps rather than the bulkier parts fitted for the United States, trimmed in the Saffron leather that Mercedes-Benz also listed as Bamboo.

Its papers include the original data card, the manuals and service records. Rather than being restored, it has been cared for and maintained in a way that preserved its originality, and the dealer reports a silky engine and an automatic that changes gear smoothly.

The car is located in Brummen, Netherlands.

The Mercedes-Benz SL 280 uses the fuel-injected 2.8-litre straight-six offered on the SL from July 1974, on Bosch K-Jetronic mechanical injection from December 1975, with breakerless electronic ignition and hydraulic valve-lash compensation, with a four-speed manual or an automatic driving the rear wheels, the three-speed automatic giving way to a four-speed unit in March 1980.

FAQ

This Mercedes-Benz SL 280 in the European market

Can this Mercedes-Benz SL 280 be bought in the Netherlands and registered elsewhere in Europe?

The car is located in Brummen, Netherlands. The dealer has not stated whether the price is quoted gross, net of VAT for export, or 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 does the mileage of this Mercedes-Benz SL 280 compare?

73,952 km recorded, against a median of 74,076 km across the Mercedes-Benz SL 280 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.

Who is selling this Mercedes-Benz SL 280, 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 SL 280 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.

Is this Mercedes-Benz SL 280 still available?

LUSSO republishes what the selling dealer advertises, and a car in demand is sometimes reserved or sold before the dealer updates its own site. Confirm current availability with Gallery Aaldering before travelling or committing funds. An enquiry sent from this page reaches that dealer directly.

What is needed to register this car if it does not stay in the Netherlands?

A cross-border registration normally requires the vehicle registration document, the certificate of conformity or an equivalent type-approval record, the purchase invoice showing the VAT treatment, and proof that any tax due in the destination country has been settled. Temporary export plates and transport insurance are arranged either by the dealer or by the buyer. Requirements differ by country and should be confirmed with the selling dealer before payment.

Where can I see the wider Mercedes-Benz SL 280 market?

LUSSO publishes a market overview for the SL 280, covering current asking prices in Europe, availability by country, why prices differ, how VAT works on a cross-border purchase and what to compare between two cars.
