Produced between 1989 and 2001, the R129-generation SL ushered in a new era for Mercedes-Benz roadsters, blending elegant styling with advanced engineering.
Its two-seat layout was complemented by innovative features such as an electro-hydraulic soft-top, reinforcing the model’s reputation for combining luxury with cutting-edge technology.
The SL 280 also set new standards for safety, featuring the pioneering automatic roll-over protection system – affectionately known as the “Wunderbar” – which could deploy within milliseconds in the event of an accident.
Even today, the R129 remains one of the most reassuring and well-engineered sports cars of its era.
Offered for sale after ~13 years of ownership, this example stands out thanks to its 'Beryl Blue' paintwork paired with a contrasting ‘Mushroom’ leather interior.
It’s a striking and timeless colour combination that perfectly complements the R129’s classic design.
