1992 Mercedes-Benz 300SL
Highlights
- Overhaul valid until January 2026
- Equipped with matching hard top with new headlining

The Appeal
Designed by the famous Bruno Sacco and created to replace the R107 that had been out of production for almost twenty years, the R129 SL was launched in 1989 with state-of-the-art equipment, the best Mercedes had to offer in terms of safety, luxury and technology. If you're looking for a modern classic cabriolet for everyday use, an R129 is the perfect choice, and this example appears to be in very good shape indeed.
Presented in an elegant Anthracite colour scheme, with a black leather interior, this SL looks extremely elegant and sophisticated. Revision is valid until January 2026, so it's ready to be driven and enjoyed immediately.

Starting from as little as £/€300, it covers the cost of our various auction and escrow services, but rest assured, we're not in the woollen eyewear business and so the exact amount is always displayed upfront before you place your bid. You will only be charged if your offer is accepted.
