2002 Mercedes-Benz SL500 Auto

Highlights 

  • Comprehensive service history
  • Genuine low mileage
  • Excellent condition throughout

The Appeal

The 500SL is a well put together and great modern classic to own. It has ample power and performance, timeless looks and Mercedes engineering and build quality. 
It’s also two cars in one with the roof up for winter and the coupe look, and with the hard-top down, a great roadster for the summer months.
This SL500 comes with all its original documentation and a mountain of receipts and MOTs from all its years, and has been properly maintained through its years by either Mercedes or Specialists.

It looks pretty good too being in excellent condition throughout, presented in Mercedes Silver with black interior.
