In production for 13 years, the R129 SL probably did more than any other to create the 'hewn-from-solid' reputation that Mercedes then enjoyed
The 500SL (SL500 from 1994) was the flagship of the range and was powered by the M119 5-litre, 32-valve V8 generating 322bhp
This Almandine Red example is supplied with its matching factory hardtop and was delivered new in May 1993
Classic SL interior in soft Mushroom leather
Recently serviced with expenditure on the front suspension and headlamp washers
The speedometer shows 10, 580 miles but it's noted to have had a replacement speedo in 2006 when the mileage was c. 57, 000 miles
Freshly MOT'd and now ready for a lengthy British summer
