"A fine and well-kept Mercedes, perfect for the SL enthusiast."

Description

The Mercedes-Benz 500 SL is an impressive car with a long history of performance and luxury. It has long been one of the most desirable models from the manufacturer. The 500 SL is renowned for its powerful performance, elegant design, and the high-quality materials used in its interior. Its V8 engine delivers impressive power and acceleration, while the well-balanced chassis and advanced suspension system provide a smooth and refined driving experience. The interior is crafted with luxurious materials and advanced technology to ensure comfort and driving enjoyment.

This particular SL 500 is in good usable condition and still wears its factory paint. It has been well cared for over the years, and the current owner has carried out some work on it, such as replacing the wiring harness in the engine bay, as well as the harnesses for the accelerator pedal and throttle body, as the car was not running properly when acquired. The car comes with three sets of keys. No service book.

Condition

  • Mechanical condition:

    Engine and drivetrain run well. The braking systems function as they should, and according to the owner, the car’s equipment also works properly, except for the AC system.

  • Interior condition:

    The interior as a whole is in well-kept condition. There are signs of use, mainly on the entry sides of the seats (see photos).

  • Exterior condition:

    As far as can be judged, the Mercedes still has its original paint. It is in good condition with only a few signs of use, though some are present (see photos). The grille on the right side of the front spoiler has been replaced and needs to be painted in the car’s color. The underside also appears to be in good condition. The antenna is missing its mast (see photo). The electric mechanism for locking the hardtop and raising/lowering the soft top works as it should. The soft top is in somewhat damaged condition (see photos), but it still functions, although with some leakage. The headlining of the hardtop is loose (see photos).

  • General condition:

    A very nice and road-ready Mercedes SL 500 in good condition. With fixes to the headlining, AC system, antenna mast, and painting of the spoiler grille, it will be even better.

Facts about the model

Mercedes’ stylish R129 was produced between 1989 and 2001 – and quickly became a worthy rival to both BMW’s 8 Series and the Porsche 911. The new SL was based on the E-Class platform and featured revolutionary technology such as a pop-up roll bar and active suspension. The SL500 came with a V8 producing 326 hp, but in true Mercedes-Benz fashion, the SL range offered a variety of engines – the most powerful being the SL600, fitted with the 5.9-liter V12 from the S-Class. At the other end of the spectrum, the entry-level model was the SL280, equipped with a 2.9-liter inline-six producing 190 hp.

  • During the auction days information about a vehicle may be updated up to the day before the auction ends.
