The R129 kept up a much-respected legacy of roadsters with refinement. Boasting a swathe of ritzy tech, a handsome executive cabin and familiar - albeit nicely modernised - styling, this was a robust, capable and beautifully finished car, built with top-notch German engineering at its core.
This particular example stands out for its remarkably low mileage of just 48,000 miles, and has had the same owner behind its wheel from new. Primarily used as a second car and stored in an underground garage for approximately 15 years, this SL320 has been recently returned to the road and is now ready and waiting for its lucky new owner.

Has been SORN for almost 20 years
Driven less than 1,200 miles per year for this time
Recently returned to the road
It was maintained by a well known and highly respected Mercedes Benz Mechanic from Mercedes Dealership in Colindale
