The Mercedes-Benz 560SL is the R107 everybody seems to want. But the R107 is more than that, an early 450SL or even a manual 350SL can be as much fun to drive. The same is true for the SLC, where a 350SLC or even the underpowered US 380SLC can be enjoyed as much as the 500SLC. This 250-page book does not only show you the cars' history, it also explains their chassis number and data card and offers a comprehensive buyer's guide. Superb recent non-Daimler AG color photography highlights many of the cars' features, including pictures of the suspension. These are some of the topics covered:
* Development of the R107 and C107 from the 350SL to the 560SL and 500SLC
* A rotary piston engine
* The 1980 facelift
* The 1981 engine update
* The 1985 facelift
* The tuning scene
* The forgotten 500SL Rally
* The chassis number explained
* The data card explained
* R107 buyer's guide
* Which R107 should I buy
* Technical specifications and production figures
This guide ends with a free book offer. Enjoy!
Why does Kobo only see 135 pages for this book? Because they count the text portions, but not all of the photos. Photos are for the author an important part of a book about cars and together with the photos, the total page count for this book is 250 pages, just like in the printed version of it.
The author Bernd S. Koehling has over 25 Mercedes books and e-books to his credit. They cover cars from the 1947 170V to the 2012 SL R231. This includes all SL from the 300SL Gullwing to the SL65 AMG.
