    I own a 1974 350 SLC imported to the states in the 70’s but what makes mine different is the manual transmission which is why I bought it.
    Just don’t know how rare it really is. I just know I never seen another one.

      Since the 3500 cc V8 engine was the only after WWII V8 car engine of Mercedes-Benz which was as a standard attached to a manual gearbox during its entire run until 1979, an automatic gearbox could be ordered as an option. Until 1972, only the 4200 cc engines with automatic gearbox were delivered to the USA. So that is why it might be that rare to find one in the USA.

    Good review. I have a '73 SLC manual transmission but seeing how you drive this I think it would be better an automatic car. Thank you.

      Dear Stefano I really can't judge if the automatic is better than the manual. I think it is a matter of taste.

    I'd like to thank-you for your review of this W107 450SLC. Until recently I drove my 1989 W124 300E but with well over 300,000KM I sold it to a nice young man as a second car for his wife to drive with their kids. I loved the 107 series cars even though I was just a kid when they came out, I would have been a 5 yr old! Now though I'd like to locate and restore a 350SLC to use as a weekend car, for trips and maybe even for our local cars and coffee meetings. I'm not sure they made a 300SLC but that straight six is possibly my favourite Mercedes-Benz engine. Anyway, I have "liked" and subscribed and look forward to watching more of your reviews. Take care!

      @@EnriqueLopez-hb5jn yes you are absolutely right. It was a wonderful car to drive, even after almost 50 years since new. I remember though that as a child I adored the look of the R107 but I was not so fond about the looks of the C107. But from todays perspectiv it is an adorable car.

      I am sorry for the poor sub titles. In the first videos I made them because some people asked me to make them. But for mw it was a huge investment of time. I noticed that the version without subtitles were less watched than the versions with subtitles. So I stopped doing it.

    Such a shame a good video on a great subject was ruined by poor video and sound quality. If you’re going to do a video on great quality cars, you should do them justice by having the same ethos in your video production. Anything less is an insult to the makers of these great cars.

      Rubbish. It's Cor's video and he's entitled to create as he sees fit. I own two Mercedes oldtimers including a 78 450slc. I appreciate the opinions and insight about these classics. Thanks Cor, for the great video.

    Nice video. wich one is nowedays more desirable, the 280 or the 350 slc? If you go for a v8 engine, isn't it better to go straight away for the 450 than the 350? thanks for answer

    • @DrivingwithGloves
      @DrivingwithGloves  4 года назад

      Thatvis hard to answer. The SLC is not very high in price, it looks different for the R107 SL, because they are climbing. I used to own a 350 SL from 1971 and a 450 SL from 1973. But I could not sense a big difference between both of them. Perhaps because the 350 SL was in a better condition. I though that the 280 SLC came later. In the end it is up to the condition of the car and the preference of the buyer. I can only say that this 350 SLC was lovely to drive, but it was sold a long time ago.
