staging: 1992 Mercedes-Benz 300 SL (R129) For Sale

The Appeal

The Mercedes-Benz 300 SL is a symbol of luxury and performance, a car that combines the elegance of a grand tourer with the heart of a sports car. Introduced in the late 1980s, this understated and attractive car replaced the legendary R107 and remained in production into the new millennium, with over 200,000 sold.

This particular 1992 Italian-registered example has had a single owner since new and has been garaged for the past year, recently returning to use. The car is in good overall condition and requires no major interventions. The bodywork is still shiny and very healthy and the original black soft top is in good condition. The leather and wood interior makes the interior very luxurious.
