Description
1998 Mercedes-Benz 500SL
This 1998 Mercedes-Benz 500SL is an excellent driver with 109k miles. Metallic champagne with beige leather interior and factory hard-top. It runs and drives great but would benefit from minor cosmetics. These cars are known for their superb build quality and bulletproof reliability and this car still feels very strong and solid out on the road. The Carfax report shows a minor accident reported in 2011 and there are a few blemishes on the front bumper as well the body in a few areas. The wheels are also a bit scuffed up and the interior would benefit from a good detailing. These cars represent an excellent value in the collector car market.
Built to replace the long-running and outdated R107, the Mercedes-Benz R129 models were announced in 1989. Produced as a two-door, two-seat grand tourer with an automated soft top and a color-matched aluminum detachable hard top. The R129 carried on the tradition of fast and reliable grand touring convertibles from Mercedes-Benz and featured many innovative ideas for the time such as controlled electronic damping, automatically extending roll-over bar and a more modern multi-link rear axle. It's no wonder these cars are becoming more collectible with each passing day.
