Introduced at the September 2001 Frankfurt Motor Show, the R230-series of Mercedes-Benz’s long-running SL range remained in production for ten years. Arguably the most accomplished two-seater Grand Tourer of its generation, the newcomer offered a blend of performance, ride, handling and refinement that few, if any, rivals could match. It continued the evolution of the outgoing R129 model with a smoother body design, a new peanut-shaped headlamp design and featured a ‘Vario Roof’ retractable hardtop. In 2006, the range received a minor cosmetic update and revised engine options. The SL 350 boasted a 0-60mph time of 7. 2 secs and top-speed of 155mph from the 3724cc V6 (241bhp/ 258lbft) engine. Its replacement, the aluminium-bodied R231, was launched in 2011.
Displaying under 29, 000 miles from new with 5 former keepers this example is said to present in fabulous condition. In current ownership for over 6 years it has covered under 4, 000 miles during this time. Finished in Telurium Silver over a dark blue leather interior, the car comes with the desirable registration number S77 WVH, 2 keys, good service history and original Mercedes-Benz bookpack. We are advised the roof electrics work faultlessly with very minimal wear marks on the interior controls.
