Description
The Mercedes SL has been with us since 1954, growing from strength to strength with each model produced. This R129 generation took the SL to new levels.
Launched in 1988 the R129 design was much sleeker and smoother than its predecessor, and it also came with much more enhanced technology to play with.
Presented here is a very well cared for example of the SL320 featuring the legendary 3.2L straight six engine producing an effortless 228bhp which is mated to a silky smooth auto gearbox making for the ideal boulevard cruiser.
This example features the sought after Azurite Blue paintwork over a full Beige leather interior. Alongside this is the dainty 16 inch alloy wheels in fabulous condition and the factory supplied hardtop which of course will be included.
This example overall presents in lovely, honest condition with only a few imperfections to really note. Probably thanks to its low mileage of around 86k and careful ownership. It has been in the last custodians hands since March of 2000 where the car was garaged stored.
Clearly the car has been kept in fine fettle boasting no warning lights on the dash, full service history and overall drives well.
The car benefits from a recent service in September of 2024 undertaken at the custodians local Mercedes-Benz dealer.

This x2 previous owner example presents excellent value for money at just 8,995.
