Description from the seller
For sale: an exceptionally well-maintained Mercedes-Benz 320 SL from the R129 series, manufactured January 1994, with a mileage of 156,300 km.
This is a accident-free German vehicle with verifiable history and a complete service booklet. The Mercedes comes with three original keys and the full on-board tool kit.
BODYWORK & PAINT
The body is in excellent condition with no rust, dents, or scratches. The car presents itself in its glossy original paint in elegant gray-beige metallic.
No welding work has been performed on the sheet metal. The rubber seals are supple all around and in very good condition.
The canvas soft top is exceptionally well preserved both visually and technically and is fully watertight. The vehicle also includes the original hardtop in the vehicle color. This has seen little use and is in nearly as-new condition.
MOTOR & TECHNIQUE
Under the hood, the well-known 3.2-liter inline-six M104 with four-valve technology and 240 hp works in conjunction with a comfortably shifting automatic transmission.
The engine starts reliably when cold and warm, runs very quietly, and shows no oil loss. Brakes and automatic transmission function flawlessly. The vehicle is fully road-ready and has no maintenance backlog.
About a year ago, the control unit, the throttle body, and the engine wiring loom/electrical harness were professionally renewed.
The brake pads were renewed about two years ago. Since then, the SL has been driven only sparingly. An unused spare wheel is also included.
INTERIOR
The interior is in an exceptionally well-kept and well above average condition with only minimal age-related signs of wear.
The seats feature the original beige-brown leather upholstery. The leather is supple and shows no significant wear. The color combination harmonizes perfectly with the gray-beige metallic paint.
HISTORY & DOCUMENTS
The vehicle has German registration and the required vehicle documents. The vehicle history is verifiable via the maintained service booklet.
The main inspection (TÜV) was recently carried out and is valid until 02.04.2028.
In addition, there is a current written valuation report with a condition grade of 2+

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.
