1996 Mercedes SL500 R129
88k, Fresh MOT on collection.
For sale on consignment.
Parm’s beautiful SL500 is back on sale! If you were to ask me which is the 129 I’d buy for myself, this would be it. Genuine everything, on Aeros with this stance, it’s perfect.
This is a very special car. The owner had a vision, painstakingly put it together to produce a car so well put together. Starting with the most beautiful, high spec R129 I’ve seen in a long while.
Mechanically it’s spot on. That mighty M119 is the best version of all the V8’s. Back by a 5 speed auto the engine is super smooth as you would expect. It pulls clean, smooth and is powerful. The gearbox is slick. These 500’s really are the muscle cars of the Mercedes stable. I’ve done roughly 100 miles in this car and it was faultless. Lots of service history present, receipts. Mot history is near faultless, which is a testament to this car. This car has ADS fitted.
Bodywork is beautiful. Sliver on 90’s Mercedes is just iconic. The AMG kit is genuine, the Aero 3’s are too. It comes with a panoramic glass hardtop. Underneath is just as clean. The owner has gone to the effort of extensively under-sealing everything (pics are available) The wheels have been recently refurbished, the kit is undamaged. The panoramic roof is in fantastic condition, the blind works as it should.
The interior is in incredible condition for a car of its age. Door cards are perfect, the black leather is exactly spec you want on a silver car. Everthing works. It’s fully spec’d with orthopaedic, memory electric seats. Climate control, heated seats. The soft top is also in nearly new condition and works as it should. It’s one of the best condition interiors I’ve seen on one of these.
It’s so beautifully period correct. I’ve fallen in love with it and in my opinion one of the best SL500’s I’ve seen.
There are lots of spares with this car including all the stock parts and some rare AMG bits that will come with the car.
