Hello together, now it’s time. I would like to buy a R107 380SL. For a long time I have been looking for a car which could be considered a classic car. Since I am new in the field I would have a few questions and would be happy if someone could give me tips. I found a 380SL BJ 1985 in blue for 9,000€ which stands in food from California. This ran 130,000 km. Yesterday I went to the dealer and looked at it with my half-knowledge. r statement is the basic substance in order. With the engine he did a compression test and it would have to be set something to run on all 8 pötten. At the stand he probably runs clean. I told him that I would like to buy this with TÜV and driving work. He would hit on 3,000€ and make me this fresh. In 2015 he would then get an H license plate. Therefore my questions. I would use this only in the summer months. a) Is a 380SL with 204 hp from USA e ine good choice? b) Does the engine differ from the German 380SL (is there different because of fuel or PS?) c) Can you have these tested by an independent professional That would be the first rough questions. I would be very happy about answers. VG
