The Mercedes-Benz 500 SL (R129) is powered by a legendary 5.0-litre V8 engine paired with an automatic transmission. This vehicle is in exceptional original condition and is one of the finest examples we have ever seen. It comes with Luxembourg registration documents, including an E705 document, and is finished in its original Blue color.

First registered on 14 May 1991, this iconic roadster combines powerful performance, smooth handling, and outstanding build quality. Renowned for its timeless design, engineering excellence, and long-term reliability, the R129 has become a highly sought-after modern classic.

The car has been carefully maintained throughout its life and presents beautifully. The soft top has been replaced, and the interior and carpets remain in excellent original condition with only minor signs of normal use. It is supplied with a Belgian Car-Pass, providing a transparent vehicle history.

Xavier's quote: "A solid, powerful two-seat modern classic, delivering instant, dependable driving pleasure. With mileage this low, finding another one is almost impossible."
