The Appeal
The Mercedes-Benz 190SL is likely the most elegant roadster of the 1950s, if not all time, offering the styling cues of its 300SL sibling in a more accessible package. This particular 190SL, with its December 1955 production date, is eligible and would potentially be considered for the Mille Miglia historic road race in Italy - a notable attraction for collectors the world over.
This example presents the DB534G Feuerwehrrot (Fire Brigade Red) colour scheme and comes with both a foldable soft top and a factory hardtop, offering versatility for different weather conditions and aesthetic preferences. With its matching numbers engine, Canadian title, and completed European import documentation (with all duties and VAT paid), this 190SL appears ready for its next owner.190SL (18).jpg1.77 MB
