The coming classic and collector car

The 500 SL—featuring the powerful 240 kW (326 hp) 5. 0-liter V8 four-valve engine (M119)—was unveiled in 1989 at the Geneva Motor Show; at the time, it stood as the most powerful production passenger car in the Mercedes-Benz lineup. Its impressive acceleration—sprinting from zero to 100 km/ h in just 6. 2 seconds—and its electronically limited top speed of 250 km/ h are performance figures that remain significant even today.

The vehicle is also equipped with a dual-outlet catalytic converter, thereby meeting modern environmental standards. This particular example is a model with a fully stamped Mercedes-Benz service booklet, presented in "nearly-new" (Jahreswagen) condition.
The bodywork is entirely free of dents or scratches and gleams in flawless condition.
The underbody, too, is completely rust-free and appears never to have been exposed to road salt.

Among other items, the following components have been renewed in recent years—meaning there is absolutely NO maintenance backlog:
- Soft top renewed
- Battery renewed
- Wheels powder-coated; tires (Michelin) in like-new condition
- MB Becker CD radio installed (including electric antenna)
- Fuel pump, strut mounts, and exhaust system renewed
- Fresh service/ maintenance performed
- "H-Kennzeichen" (Historic Vehicle Registration) obtained
- Current TÜV (Technical Inspection) report rates condition as 1–2 (Excellent/ Very Good)
- Air conditioning system converted to R134a refrigerant

Featuring the classic "black-on-black" color combination, this is a true classic automobile. It is straightforward to maintain (partly because it is not equipped with the complex ABC suspension system). Numerous recent service invoices are available, confirming the absence of any maintenance backlog; everything functions perfectly, making this a vehicle you can simply hop into and drive. The robust 326 horsepower output of this first-series model guarantees a driving experience comparable to that of a modern sports car.
