Those in the market for an R129 generation SL have plenty to choose from, but discerning collectors go after the rarer editions, like this very rare and sought-after 300 SL-24 from 1992.
The 300 SL-24 is so-called because of its high-performance 24-valve, 3.0-litre inline-six M104 engine, which delivers 228 hp and is renowned for its 7,000-rpm redline. This engine provides a significant power increase over the standard 12-valve model, offering nimbler handling and superior weight distribution compared to the heavier V8 and V12 variants.
Our 1992 example stands out with its extensive service history and careful ownership. Having been stored in a garage since its acquisition in April 2022, it presents very well With only approximately 300 miles added since purchase, this SL-24 is a compelling choice for those seeking a classic Mercedes with a documented history and minimal use in recent years.IMG_8785 Flaviu.jpeg3.95 MB
