The Appeal
The advent of the R231-generation Mercedes-Benz SL marked a significant leap forward for Stuttgart's flagship roadster, combining a retractable hard top with cutting-edge technology and grand touring ability. The SL500, powered by a twin-turbocharged 4.7-litre V8 producing 435 HP, sits at the heart of the range and offers a strong blend of performance and refinement.
This 2018 example is particularly well-appointed. Finished in Obsidian Black with Exclusive Brown leather, it cuts a distinguished figure and benefits from the desirable glass vario roof — a feature that floods the cabin with light even when closed. The AMG Sports Package brings 19-inch AMG spoked wheels, AMG styling elements, and dynamic front seats, while the mechanical specification runs deep: Active Body Control suspension, DISTRONIC PLUS adaptive cruise control, Active Blind Spot Assist, Active Lane Keeping Assist, Active Park Assist, Traffic Sign Recognition, and AIRSCARF neck-level heating for open-air motoring in cooler weather. The interior is further enhanced by black ash wood trim, a Dinamica black headliner, ambient illumination, and a premium sound system.
Originally delivered new in Germany, the car has been on Dutch registration since 2019 and shows 115,469 km on the clock. Its matching numbers V8 engine was last serviced in July 2023 at 107,744 km, with the work recorded in the Mercedes-Benz digital service report.
