The Appeal
Even after eighteen years, you couldn't fault the R107 on its style. So when it came to replacing their most popular roadster, Mercedes threw as much tech at it as possible. Launched in 1989, the R129 was among the safest and best-engineered cars on the road. The 'electrohydraulic' roof alone was an engineering marvel,
This 1998 SL 500 stands out with its rare Green Black Metallic paint, a colour that adds a unique touch to its classic design. With only 65,060 miles on the clock, this SL 500 has been well-preserved and maintained, as evidenced by its comprehensive service history and clean Carfax report.
The vehicle's recent maintenance, including a fuel pump and filter replacement, ensures it is in fine fettle for its next owner. Additionally, it comes with a Mercedes Datacard and all necessary import documentation, making it a seamless acquisition for European buyers who can now register the car in their country of choice.SL500 (10).jpg765.97 KB
