The 107 chassis is one of the longest running body styles ever produced by Mercedes-Benz. Its durable, porty and stylish nature made it one of the most sought after and iconic models of the 1970s and 80s. This is an amazing example of one of the limited few that still remain phenomenally well preserved. With the exception of the tires, attery and a few mechanical components, he car is 100% original.
