11979 Mercedes-Benz 450 SLC R107 - 3 former keepers - AMG Wheels - Previous Engine and Bodywork Restoration Lovely Mercedes-Benz 450 SLC with just 3 former keepers, very cool styling and undergone previous restorative works. Finished beautifully in the car's factory paint code - Anthracite Grey Metallic (172). Riding on a set of AMG Pentas wheels and fitted with a very rare set of Recaro seats coming from a SEC Widebody of mid-late 80s. The headrests have integrated Blaupunkt speakers and they are super comfortable. With the addition of the AMG steering wheel it all makes for an fantastic feel and drive. Between 2010-2011, it underwent substantial restorative and engine works at Buryas Bridge Garage, who are a classic car restorer in Cornwall and were local to the last owner of 14 years. It had a full repaint whilst there and the wheel arches, inner and outer sills were all restored. Mechanically - the heads were stripped and rebuilt, timing chain replaced, new gaskets and rubbers, replacement oil cooler, new trans fluid filter, engine flush, vacuum overhaul, new pipes, lead distributor cap, new injectors. It has since covered a very healthy 10,000 miles, with the owner ensuring regular MOTs and required maintenance has been carried out. We are pleased to offer this SLC having been inspected, a fresh oil service carried out and with an MOT. Now registered as an historic vehicle with the DVLA meaning it is now exempt from UK road tax and MOT tests and is a ULEZ compliant vehicle..

About Us:
Our promise: “We ensure you’ll find your ideal classic car.”
Just moments from the M25, or a 23-minute train ride from London Liverpool Street and the City, our Fairmont Sports & Classics showroom team in Brentwood is committed to changing the way classic vehicles are bought and sold.
Classic models across the decades
Our stocklist – with new vehicles arriving daily – spans popular and iconic vehicles from the 60s through to the late 90s and beyond.
Over two floors we present a curated selection of more than 50 sports and classic cars – plus several motorcycles – all fully inspected, checked and ready to drive away, delivered, or shipped overseas.
We buy well so you’re not at risk
The buying team comprises seasoned motor industry professionals: our backgrounds span retail sales, fleet management, auction, wholesale, and service, inspection and maintenance. Having grown up with, driven and loved countless classics ourselves, we know what our customers look for: models and marques piquing current market interest; examples that are in excellent usable condition and order; and vehicles that represent a sound, good value investment.
An online portal search for any classic model will list several hundred vehicles across the UK. The unfortunate truth is that the vast majority, under scrutiny, will prove sub-standard, misrepresented or require uneconomic restoration or repair. Finding a good vehicle without motor trade experience is not for the faint-hearted.
We purchase our cars from private owners, collections and specialist auction houses. We are exceptionally selective about which vehicles we buy, when and why; we reject over 90% of all those we see. Those we purchase match varying customer demands: ‘best in market’ and fully original; fully or partially restored examples; and sound, practical, fun classics to be driven and enjoyed.
Whether you’re an investor, an enthusiast, or simply keen to recapture your youth, we’d love to help you find your ideal classic.
Warranty:
We want every customer to be confident in their purchase. Whilst we sell nationwide, many of our sales are local, with some customers revisiting to buy, sell or service more vehicles.
To ensure a worry-free motoring experience, we include our own pre-owned vehicle warranty and provide full servicing and support on-site.
The price of every car includes a six-month warranty for major component failure: engine, transmission, and final drive. For the first three months, it covers the cost of any essential parts and labour. Thereafter we provide a 50% discount on any essential parts and labour for the remaining three.
We also operate our own on-site workshop offering specialist classic vehicle servicing, maintenance and repairs. The same mechanics that inspected and prepared your vehicle for sale will be delighted to keep it in good working order throughout your ownership.
