About This Car
1999 Mercedes-Benz SL320 (R129)
34,000 miles
Brilliant Silver Metallic (744) with Black Nappa Leather (231) and Panoramic Glass Roof (415)
A fantastically well presented and equipped late model R129 in desirable Silver with Black combination.The SL 320 utilises the simply sublime M112 3.2 L 18-valve Single Overhead Cam V6, pushing just over 220bhp through the rear wheels.
Fitted with the 3.2 litre V6 engine (a Mercedes-Benz masterstroke); this car provides the perfect combination of classic styling and modern engineering, all wrapped up in a package based on the dependable W124.
An R129 offers the build quality of an R107, they feel sturdy and expensive where later SLs begin to feel more lightweight. It is the last quintessential of the grand pianos, where everything that followed was merely a keyboard…
With that wooden wheel, the ample space of the seats, the panoramic roof, the reassuring feel of the heavy steering, the buzz from the engine and the thrill of V6 power, these SL320s are not to be underrated.
This car shows very low mileage from previous careful owners, boasting heated electric memory seats and glass panoramic hard top. A very collectible R129 in iconic Mercedes colours.

Where will your Mercedes-Benz take you?
Bulkhead Corrosion
Although the R107 is renowned for build quality, there is one chink in the armour – the bulkhead. Many cars that present well from the outside are hiding internal rust. Water from outside the car should drain out through specially designed channels, but over time, these become blocked forcing water inside the car. Once water has breached the blower motor cover in front of the windscreen, it slowly wreaks havoc from inside out. This delicate area did not have rust protection from the factory, and as the metal deteriorates it the water ingress can lead to faulty electrics, damp carpets and musty smells inside the cabin.
All our cars come with a 36 month bulkhead warranty.
