Description
An elegant, remarkably well-preserved Mercedes SL with a distinctive history. Aux Châteaux du Sud-Ouest offers this superb 1997 Mercedes-Benz SL 320, showing just 74, 000 km since new. Finished in elegant Azurite Blue metallic (shade to be confirmed) and paired with black leather upholstery, this SL offers a particularly refined colour combination, faithful to the spirit of the great Mercedes convertibles of the 1990s. Its presentation is one of its main strengths. The bodywork has a remarkable paint finish, while the cabin, trimmed throughout in black leather, is in excellent condition. The wood trim, the leather and wood steering wheel and the other finishing details all contribute to the luxurious, timeless atmosphere of this model. This car has had only three owners and was once owned by the well-known French painter Didier Chamizo, a recognised figure in contemporary art, who hails from Cahors. This distinctive provenance adds to the car's history. The car comes with its original Mercedes hard top, in excellent condition, allowing you to enjoy a true convertible during the warm months or the comfort of an elegant coupé when the hard top is fitted. The soft top mechanism has received particular attention, with hydraulic rams checked and serviced. Under its long bonnet sits the renowned 3. 2-litre Mercedes inline six-cylinder, producing 231 hp and paired with an automatic gearbox. This powertrain is known for its smoothness, refinement and roadholding. Styled under the direction of Bruno Sacco, the R129 roadster is today one of Mercedes-Benz's most iconic creations, combining elegance, build quality and grand touring comfort. A fine opportunity to acquire a low-mileage Mercedes SL 320 in a classic, elegant specification, with a remarkable presentation and an unusual provenance. Key features: Year: 1997.
