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 motor car that bristled with technical refinement and innovative safety features. The specification included independent suspension all round (double wishbone at the front and a five-link system at the rear), adaptive damping, ventilated disc brakes with ABS, electronic stability control, an integral roll-over bar and front air bags. When introduced in 1993, the SL320 variant featured a DOHC in-line six-cylinder engine of 220bhp and continued through to 2002.

Having had just three owners from new, this SL320 survives in very original condition. Records show it was completed on 25th October, 1995, although not registered for the road until 1st May, 1996. It still appears in its original colour scheme of Green Black Metallic with interior trim 265A (variously known as Mushroom, Parchment or Cream Beige), which presents very well. First sold through Mercedes-Benz agent Lancaster Bow Ltd. of London, it was specified with a number of desirable features, including an adjustable steering column, front and rear speakers, headlamp cleaning equipment and eight-hole alloy wheels.

This SL320 has evidently been well looked-after, as the service book contains fifteen stamps, of which the most recent was issued at 100,582 miles. The car has now covered a little over 101,000 miles, but it was only recommissioned last year having been placed in dry storage in 2018. A large collection of invoices and MOT certificates indicate just how well-maintained it has been, and it has most recently benefitted from a comprehensive service of the hood, which opens and closes quickly and smoothly. In the most recent ownership since 2005, it is offered with the latest V5C, the original book pack and a fresh MOT.
