The R129 was a smart evolution of Mercedes' much-beloved roadster formula. The refined, laid-back personality of these big, comfy tourers continues to garner a very unique appeal alongside enthusiasts, and thanks to the company's over-engineering ethos of the era, they're still remarkably enduring, usable cars to boot.
A good example has never been more popular, and this one is likely to garner plenty of interest. Owned by the same family for a decade, this handsome car has been kept in a heated garage and only driven for shows and special occasions, only during the sunny days they were designed for.
Minimal mileage as been covered as a result in the past few years, and it's been very well-kept, with much of the servicing being done by the family owners. It's elegant, comfortable and ready to go - and just in time for the summer. image.png3.88 MB
