Introduction
Darren Rungasamy
A premium grand tourer with a V8 punch - the fantastic SL500.
The R230 generation of SL Mercedes was the 5th in line of succession as Mercedes Benz's halo model. Unveiled in 2002, the sleek purposeful roadster with a metal folding roof genuinely offered the best of both worlds, adding a dash of style, refinement and pace. Never considered an out-and-out sports car, its chassis set-up, steering and balance lend it perfectly as a tourer on the grandest scale. The subtle badging and detailing hint at the power contained within, there is 302 bhp and a devastating amount of torque on tap. The V8 5.0-litre has a knack for offering a silky smooth delivery with a genuine sporting burble at its top-end revs.
We previously sold this car a few years ago and it now makes a return sale after being enjoyed by the current owner and him keeping it in top condition with ~£3,000 worth of spending.
It's a well spec’d car with ABC Sport suspension option, Parktronic, Bi-xenon headlamps and heated leather seats - this 5.0-litre V8 2004 SL500 is finished in Cubanite Silver and comes with a decent level of service history.
Beautifully presented inside and out, it has seen a recent service and comes with an MOT to October 2024.
This listing was written from information supplied by Darren after meeting Brian the owner, and having visited and photographed the vehicle.
