Yes, you need another car for your speed fix. The 107 is the only car you'll drive on a Sunday morning and get out of it feeling more relaxed than when you got in.

Sunny Sunday mornings for me are a blast in the Exige S followed by a cruise in the 107 and hopefully a quiet beer in the evening pondering the mix of class & beauty of the 107.

it being a nice car has still cost me 9k getting the odds and sods fixed. Cost of genuine parts are horrendous.
There's no such thing as a "cheap 107". As always, buy on condition and the very best cars fetch the very best money

Lots of 107's at my local MB Dealer in Hamburg. Start at 30,000 euros up to 68,000 euros

Found my original post of 10 years ago!!

Anyway, the R107 was one car i really regretted selling so i was fortunate enough to find another 300SL earlier this year. Must use it more in 2024 rather than the few hundred miles it covered!
