1999 MERCEDES-BENZ SL

This lot will be auctioned via Iconic Auctioneers, The Classic Sale at Silverstone Festival 2025 on Sunday the 24th of August, The Wing, Silverstone Circuit, NN12 8TN.

Originally purchased new and shipped to its owner’s second home in Barbados, this R129 SL has led a sheltered life, avoiding harsh English winters, being used sparingly and stored carefully

Powered by Mercedes' refined M112 3.2-litre, 18-valve SOHC V6 producing 221bhp at 5,600rpm, it delivers smooth, effortless performance

Finished in striking Cabernet Red with a contrasting cream beige leather interior, the car presents beautifully and exudes timeless elegance

Showing just under 32,000 miles, it has recently benefited from a comprehensive service, a new battery, four new tyres and an overhaul of its roof mechanism

Low-mileage, well maintained R129s are becoming increasingly sought after and this example, with its rare specification and excellent condition, offers many more years of enjoyment for its next custodian
