DESCRIPTION
This really lovely 300SL is one of the last 50 cars produced, and reputedly carries the cache of being the most highly-spec'd car for the UK market being, as it was, ordered for the Dealer Principle of Mercedes-Benz Harrogate at the time. Most every option in the list as long as your arm was ticked at an eye-watering cost in 1989 of more than £6300 above the £32,750 list price!
Showing fewer than 80,000 believed genuine miles, the car is straight out of an episode of Dallas with striking White paintwork and wonderfully aged but still with Mercedes-standard quality blue leather interior. With matching white hardtop and all those creature comforts from the options list, including drivers' airbag, this is genuinely an everyday classic that can keep up with modern traffic, look after you with modern safety standards and still cut a look be it on the school run, outside the office, or even in Sainsbury's car park!
The price is sensibly guided against lesser cars out there in the retail arena that are priced above £20,000, so this is a serious contender to replace your current steed. Taxed, MoT'd and sold with UK V5C, subject to insurance you could be driving this car home...
