The Appeal
The Mercedes-Benz SL500 R230 represents a high point of early 2000s German engineering, combining luxurious grand touring capabilities with impressive performance from its 5.0L V8 engine.
This particular 2003 example stands out for its comprehensive documentation and meticulous maintenance record. With a clean CARFAX report confirming its damage-free history and verified 79,950-mile odometer reading, this example ticks all of the boxes.
This fine car is accompanied by a complete service history with 42 documented records, including a recent service performed in March 2024, just 1,600 miles ago. All that's left is for the lucky buyer to register the car in Eurpope!
