1997 Mercedes SL Class R129 SL60 AMG SL500 SL320 sl600

Comes with spare set of wheels and Glass roof

Powered by a 6. 0-litre V8, this SL60 AMG was ordered new in 1997 and delivered to its first owner in london in 1997, where its Silver paint would have certainly brightened up even the greyest day.
It's said just 49 SL60s were built in RHD, out of a total of around 633 examples, making these among the rarest AMG models ever built. Power was quoted at 381hp, that less than the V12 SL600 from Mercedes-Benz, though it's rumoured that AMG understated this and power was over 400BHP in real life.

This car has covered a few hundred miles shy of 120000 miles since it was delivered in '97.
A rare car, that's increasingly being sought by collectors, the SL60 AMG isn't just a fantastic car to drive, but a historically significant model in Mercedes-Benz and AMG history.

Decoding the VIN underlines this is a proper, new ordered SL60, opposed to a car that's been converted, with it having tell-tale codes of 957 - AMG Engineering Package, 774 - Shell Modification for AMG Wheels (these 18-inch split-rim alloys) among its build specification. Collected from the factory by the first owner, and rumoured to be de-restricted (untested!), this car comes with a panoramic hard top along with Hard top stand, this is an extremely well specified SL60 AMG.

In the last couple of years the car has had all new
shocks, springs, bushers, tyres, anti roll bars, wishbones, wheel bearings, brakes, gearbox rebuilt, steering parts and servicing for the owner to enjoy which he has done covering around 10k miles touring around the EU.
This one is the only SL60 with the silver arrows interior upgrade.
Also comes with the sound system upgraded to give you that rich sound of music with the top down.
