History and Condition
This 500 SL was originally delivered in Germany before being exported to Japan, where its use is documented through surviving service records. Following repatriation to Germany, the car underwent a full technical inspection and was prepared for German registration. The fresh full roadworthiness test, including the H-plate historic vehicle assessment, was passed without any faults. The car presents as a very clean and honest example with a coherent, traceable history.

The reduced price already reflects this.
