1992 Mercedes-Benz 500SL R129

This Mercedes-Benz 500 SL is a refined modern classic roadster, originally delivered to Japan and now offered for sale in Australia, where it remains unregistered. Under the bonnet sits a naturally aspirated 5.0-litre V8, delivering around 236kW to the rear wheels via a four-speed automatic transmission. The odometer displays 52,469 miles, though this is not warranted. Build year: 1992 The car is finished in Blue-Black with a black soft top over a black leather-trimmed cabin featuring burr walnut inlays. It rides on a set of aftermarket 18-inch Larzon wheels, fitted with Michelin Pilot Sport 4 tyres. Equipment includes electric windows, cruise control, air conditioning, electrically adjustable seats with three-position memory, and a Pioneer stereo. Accompanying the sale is a file of paperwork, operator’s manual printout, the import approval paperwork, removable hard top, and a spare wheel. Please refer to the photo gallery to assess exterior and interior condition. Specific notes from the seller include: a small blemish on the front left wheel arch. The air conditioning does not blow cold. This R129-era Mercedes-Benz 500 SL is a refined open-top grand tourer, believed to remain in original and unmodified condition, and accompanied by the removable hard top for greater year-round usability. It would make a stylish addition to any collection of modern classics, as well as a comfortable companion for road trips and fair-weather weekend drives.
