AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

GENERAL:
Mercedes Benz SL 280 registered by its first owner on 3-7-2008 in Belgium. Subsequently relocated to Spain, selling the car to its second owner in 2014 with 22,017 Km. The second owner sold the car to its third owner in 2017 with 57,553 Km. The last owner kept the car until 2025 when it was acquired by the current seller. The last owner has had the car unused for the last 5 years. The mileage is real and documented by the service history. The car is up to date with everything and in perfect usable condition. Minimal wear from use.

The Mercedes-Benz SL 280 features design code R 230 KE 30 (Type 230.454) equipped with a V6 engine. It is an extremely exclusive version within the R230 facelift generation: only 1,914 units were built between March 2008 (the restyling date of the R230 series) and late 2009, at which point the model changed its commercial name to SL 300 after a power upgrade.

BODYWORK AND PAINT:
Paint condition polished and with a ceramic coating applied for 3 years, with minimal parking scratches. Condition of the rubber seals, glass, chrome parts and lights in very good condition.

MECHANICS:
Important recent servicing to bring the car up to date after its period of inactivity. Braking pads, front discs, brake fluid, belts and both batteries (new) have been replaced. All four tires are new Michelin tires. The suspension is in good condition, the clutch is fine and the V6 engine along with the transmission operate in perfect condition. Starts perfectly and drives very well.

INTERIOR:
Upholstery, seats, roof lining, dashboard and door panels in very good condition, with minimal signs of wear. All original. Includes fire extinguisher and vintage first-aid kit. All electrical systems work correctly.

DOCUMENTATION:
Current ITV (technical inspection) valid. A history of repairs and recent maintenance invoices are included to certify the work and the real mileage.

PICKUP:
The car is delivered in Madrid.

Catawiki always aims to offer you the best possible buying experience. Our experts virtually review and select every vehicle in line with our submission guidelines and we require our sellers to provide the most accurate description of the vehicle. However, providing a fully detailed analysis of the vehicle is extremely difficult, and close to impossible. To guide you, we ask our sellers to provide information about the vehicle’s condition. Please consider that most vehicles for sale are classic vehicles and they often already have a whole life behind them, meaning that even a condition 1 or 2 vehicle might need maintenance to be ready for the road. It is advised to carefully read our submission guidelines that further describe details about the condition grades and types to manage your expectations. Cars are sold “as is”, meaning as described and in the condition they are in at the time of the sale and without any representation, warranty or assumption of liability of any kind as to the condition by Catawiki or by the seller. The condition of this item is the opinion of the seller and may differ from yours, your local garage, or the dealer’s opinion. This does not automatically mean the car does not conform to its description. Before bidding, please check your local legislation regarding vehicle registration. Neither the seller nor Catawiki is responsible for the registration of the vehicle in your country and will not accept a cancellation for your failure to register the vehicle. We also recommend that, if possible, you arrange a viewing with the seller before placing a bid.
