2006 Mercedes-Benz SL500 (R230)
Vendor supplied images
Highlights

- Silver-grey metallic paintwork
- Black leather interior with wood-effect accents
- Accompanied by American registration and EU import documents
The Appeal
Nobody can deny that Mercedes-Benz delivered with the R230. Sleek, comfortable, and with some serious performance under the bonnet, the car was expensive but paid its buyers dividends with superior comfort, plenty of options and fanciful styling that felt well ahead of the times.
This particular example is a sound one, capturing much that you'd affiliate with the line. That 5.0L V8, silver-grey paintwork and comfortable leather cabin are all present and correct. The car has spent a little time in storage, and will need some attention - but once it's done, you'll have a highly potent modern classic that'll draw plenty of envious eyes.
