Description
Mercedes-Benz SL 500 (Early 315bhp M113) - Panoramic Hardtop - AMG Monoblocks - Good service History
A well presented Mercedes-Benz SL 500 fitted with the desirable early 315bhp M113 315bhp V8 engine. Finished in Obsidian Black with a light grey leather interior, this example comes complete with the rare panoramic glass hardtop and factory AMG Monoblock alloys.
The car benefits from a recent MOT, a good service history file, the original stamped service book, a spare Mercedes key, and lots of supporting invoices. It has been owned since 2014, and the soft-top was replaced in 2012. The alloy wheels were recommissioned around three years ago, but has not covered any miles since.

The car was on sale or return for 20,000 with a garage and I have used their pictures
