The fourth generation of Mercedes-Benz’s much-vaunted SL model (the R129 Series) was launched at the Geneva Motor Show of 1989. It was a beautifully engineered motorcar that bristled with technical refinement and innovative safety features. The specification included independent suspension all round (double wishbone at the front/five-link system at the rear), adaptive damping, ventilated disc brakes with ABS, electronic stability control, integral roll-over bar and front airbags. When introduced in 1993, the SL320 variant featured a DOHC in-line six-cylinder engine of 220bhp and was continued through to 2002.
Manufactured in 1997, the SL 320 offered was supplied new to the United Kingdom being first registered as ‘19 DE’ on the 8th of September. Finished from the factory in Black Green paintwork with a Grey leather interior upholstery and a Black hood, the SL was specified with the 8-hole light alloy wheels, headlamp cleaning equipment, speakers front and rear, electric seats, cruise control, and CD radio. Offered now having covered a modest mileage of just 79,500 miles from new, the Mercedes-Benz has had just three former keepers, entering into current ownership in 2008. The vendor informs that ‘R663 UDD’ has been regularly serviced and is offered with extensive service history, with the vendor rating the Mercedes-Benz as ‘good’ throughout (in regard to bodywork, paintwork, engine, gearbox, electrical equipment, and interior trim). The vendor notes that there is a small crack in the soft top window on the edge.
