The R230 was introduced in 2001 and continued the evolution of SL with smoother body design and new peanut-shaped headlamp design. The fifth-generation SL-Class featured a 'Vario Roof' retractable hardtop, 'Keyless Go' keyless entry and smart key, and 'Sensotronic Brake Control' (SBC) electro-hydraulic power brake system. In 2008, the R230 SL underwent a significant facelift featuring new and revised engines and a new front end that evoked the classic 300 SL with a large grille, a prominent three-pointed star and twin 'power domes' on the bonnet. It also features new headlights, which give the car the modern look it enjoys with an optional 'Intelligent Light System' and a new speed sensitive steering system.

‘SV11 PGU’ was supplied new to the United Kingdom, being road registered on the 3^rd May 2011, and registered new to a Mercedes-Benz dealership in Scotland, before very shortly afterwards registered to the dealer principal's wife. Finished from new in the fabulous colour scheme of special order Mauritius Blue Designo paintwork with Grey leather interior upholstery, and a panoramic roof, the SL was very well specified from the factory and included Parktronic; Airscarf and draught stop; AMG 19-inch wheels; mirrors package with auto dimming; electric memory adjustable drivers seat; Comand APS with DVD; automatic climate control; aluminium trim pieces; heated screen wash system; heated seats; and Bi-Xenons. Passing to one further family in Scotland before heading to England, the SL350 has since been owned by the vendor and a neighbour.

Benefitting from a new V-Belt, new control unit and a small service in 2022, costing some £1,500, the Mercedes has also recently received two new batteries, as well as boasting scarcely used Pirellis all around. Supplied with the book pack, two sets of keys, a space saver wheel and a collection of invoices, the SL also has a current V5C document. A wonderful balance of sport, technology, and luxury, low mileage examples of the second-generation R230 are potentially a smart investment for the future and are becoming very collectable, and this example, presented in an excellent Designo colour combination, is certainly one to consider.
