SUMMARY

c68,000 miles and very well presented in gleaming Almandine over a classic SL interior in Mushroom leather.

DESCRIPTION

  • In production for 13 years, the R129 SL probably did more than any other to create the 'hewn-from-solid' reputation that Mercedes then enjoyed
  • The 500SL (SL500 from 1994) was the flagship of the range and was powered by the M119 5-litre, 32-valve V8 generating 322bhp
  • This Almandine Red example is supplied with its matching factory hardtop and was delivered new in May 1993
  • Classic SL interior in soft Mushroom leather
  • Recently serviced with expenditure on the front suspension and headlamp washers
  • The speedometer shows 10,580 miles but it's noted to have had a replacement speedo in 2006 when the mileage was circa 57,000 miles
  • Freshly MOT'd and now ready for a lengthy British Summer
