Vehicle Details
AI Listing Summary
This 1955 Mercedes-Benz 300 SL Gullwing, chassis 5500485, sold for £675,000. Originally White Grey, it was later changed to Black and has a well-documented ownership history. The car retains many original features, including upholstery and wheels, suggesting it has been well-preserved, though it has an unwarranted 30,400 miles.
Condition
7
The car is described as being in highly original condition, seemingly never allowed to deteriorate to the point of needing restoration. It retains its original upholstery, boot floor covering, factory-fitted steel wheels (as spares), and bellypans. However, it has undergone a color change and shows an unwarranted mileage, indicating some wear and tear. The thinning chrome plating also suggests age and use.
