Description
Mercedes Benz R129 SL320 in arguably the best colours of Azurite Blue with Cream leather interior.
First registered on 30/ 10/ 1995 so approaching 30 years old this SL has covered a low 3, 800 miles a year and is now on 114, 190 miles which may rise a little. I am reducing my car collection and have therefore decided to sell.
The car has a full Mercedes main dealer and Mercedes specialist service history which includes the massive file of invoices for work done and the original service book.
Lots of work done by John Haynes in Worthing, who are one of the best Mercedes Specialists in the country.

As you can see this car has been well cared for all of its life with no expense spared.
It still presents extremely well with no rust in the usual R129 front wings or rear arches.
It has its original hard top in good condition, as is the soft top.
The alloys are like new and have quality Continental tyres fitted all round
The 3. 2 litre straight six engine is silky smooth and the five speed automatic gearbox is the same.
A top quality expensive retro looking Continental CD/ DAB/ Bluetooth/ Telephone stereo unit is fitted which is in keeping with the interior fittings.
Original Mercedes wind deflector included
I have priced the car to sell and I am sure it represents fantastic value for money.
Classic car insurance is very reasonable and the agreed value is currently £11, 500
Payment by Bank Transfer/ cash upon collection
The vehicle is located in Basildon Essex just 10 minutes off the M25 at Junction 29.
