Description
2007 Mercedes-Benz SL350 Roadster finished in timeless Obsidian Black with traditional black leather interior. A true modern classic grand tourer that still feels every bit as special today as it did when it left the showroom.
This SL350 Roadster has covered 120, 800 miles and comes with a substantial history file containing service records, invoices and maintenance paperwork accumulated over the years. We have owned the car for approximately three years and during that time it has been carefully maintained regardless of cost to keep it mechanically strong and reliable.
Recent maintenance and improvements include:
* SBC brake system replaced
* Both vehicle batteries replaced
* New suspension springs and struts
* New tyres
* New discs and brake pads
* Recent full service including oils and filters
* Pulleys and auxiliary/serpentine belt replaced last month
The powered folding hardtop roof operates perfectly with no leaks, transforming the car effortlessly from refined coupe to open-top roadster in seconds. With the roof down, one can truly appreciate the distinctive V6 growl which never fails to bring a smile and perfectly complements the relaxed grand touring nature of the car.
On the road, the SL drives beautifully smooth, refined and comfortable exactly as you would expect from a Mercedes-Benz flagship roadster. The V6 engine delivers effortless performance, the gearbox changes smoothly and the car remains an exceptional long-distance cruiser while still offering an engaging and rewarding driving experience.
Cosmetically the vehicle presents very well for its age, although naturally there are some age-related marks and minor imperfections consistent with a 19-year-old classic vehicle. Nothing that detracts from the overall presence or enjoyment of the car.
The R230 SL350 Roadster is increasingly recognised as a modern classic, combining timeless styling, luxury, engineering and everyday usability in a way very few cars manage.
A genuine, mechanically sorted example with excellent history and significant recent expenditure. Ready to be enjoyed immediately.
Private registration not included in the sale.
