Signal Red Hardtop (568) and Black Fabric Soft Top (9001)

61,258 miles

A high specification 300SL with Outside Air Temperature Gauge, Rear Seats and Beige Fabric, a desirable car that benefits from a significant recent spend – and an impeccable service record.

This Signal Red Mercedes-Benz 300SL was first registered on 11th August 1989 to Gynwebb Ltd, before ownership transferred to a Mrs D, who owned the car until 2003. From there it was purchased from a Reg Vardy dealership by a Mrs B, another long term keeper who adored this car for 17 years.

For every year since 2010 it has attended Mercedes-Benz of Teeside for a visual health check and MOT, covering very few miles in the last decade. Maintenance records on file date back to 2003, with the history painting a picture of a well cared for, lightly used car that has always been driven consistently.

Recent works include all new discs and pads, brake fluid, subframe bushes, anti-roll bar bushes, timing case seal, oil filter and fuel filter, new bonnet pad, all new tyres, full wheel refurbishment, front and rear propshaft couplings and refreshed paintwork including the hardtop – more than £10,000 has been spent to present this car in our showroom, much to the benefit of the next keeper. All of this work is documented within the file.

An excellent opportunity to purchase an honest and well cared for car that’s been loved by just two former keepers – a car that has recently enjoyed a significant recommissioning spend after years of limited usage, now ready and waiting for a new owner to use and enjoy.

This Mercedes-Benz has been hand-picked by SLSHOP’s sales team due to its high calibre status. Every inch of this vehicle’s exterior, interior and mechanicals have been inspected by SLSHOP’s workshops to ensure the vehicle meets our world leading standards. While every effort has been made to offer pristine vehicles, there will be some age-related marks, unless otherwise stated.
