special edition or just rare ?
Discussion
Iv just picked up this as my next project.
Iv never see an sl with that trim before the seller told me he thinks it was a special edition and tnat it had a badge on the console but it was stolen while in storage.
There is evidence of this badge but no idea what it was.
I mo its not everyones cup of tea but in the metal it looks quite good or it will.
Thatis untill you realise that it has a BLUE hood!!!
Anyone hear shine an light on tge subject?

Looking at the wheels, these are quite late, do check to see that the correct wheels bolts have been fitted. It is possible that those wheels have 14mm bolt holes and the 129 uses 12mm bolts. There are special bolts available if this is the case, there are 12mm bolts with a 14mm radius seat head available.

Nothing wrong with a white, red and blue combo...just trying to create the union jack edition.
In all seriousness, back then, anything went and the customer chose. Not like today where MBUK severely restrict what we're allowed to order.
I love this note in a R129 brochure from about 1997. Lots of choice, but a subtle hint from M-B not to do anything too tacky....In all seriousness, back then, anything went and the customer chose. Not like today where MBUK severely restrict what we're allowed to order.
