A stylish icon of
1990s Mercedes-Benz engineering, this 1993 Mercedes SL320 Auto presents an
excellent opportunity to acquire a refined and increasingly desirable modern
classic. Combining timeless R129 styling with effortless grand touring
capability, this well-presented example offers open-top luxury, strong road
presence, and everyday usability.
First registered in October
1993, this SL320 is powered by its smooth 3199cc petrol engine paired with a
4-speed automatic transmission, delivering the relaxed yet capable driving
experience for which these cars are so well known. Finished in classic black
with a black leather interior, it offers a sophisticated and enduring
specification that perfectly suits the elegant lines of this
generation.
The current owner has cared
for the vehicle since October 2012, with the car now showing 6 former keepers in
total. While some of the earlier history has unfortunately been mislaid over
time, the car is supplied with an old MOT certificate along with a selection of
invoices documenting work carried out over the years.
Importantly, this
SL320 was driven over 40 miles to site and performed exactly as expected,
starting, stopping, and running well during its journey and while on location
for photography. The MOT is valid until October 2026, offering additional
reassurance for its next custodian.
Included in the sale is the
desirable registration number L300 SAT, along with the factory hard top,
enhancing both its value and year-round practicality. The bodywork presents well
overall, with only a few age-related marks consistent with its years, none of
which detract from the car’s impressive appearance or unmistakable
presence.
A superb chance to own a
genuine Mercedes-Benz classic from one of the marque’s most celebrated eras,
this SL320 offers luxury, style, and collectible appeal at an accessible level.
Whether enjoyed as a weekend cruiser, usable classic, or future investment, it
remains a distinguished example of the enduring R129
legend.
