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.

We are pleased to offer this 1995 SL 320 in pleasingly original condition. Registered new in London, ‘M414 CLY’ was residing in the Guildford area of Surrey by 2004. Its earliest recorded history is a service invoice from the West Horsley Motor Works, dating from March 18th, 2004, when the mileage stood at 69,731 miles. Following the MOT history, the Mercedes appears to have remained in continuous use, averaging 5,000 to 6,000 miles a year until 2013. It was then used intermittently and sparingly until 2019, when it was taken off the road for a few years. Recommissioned in 2023, it has once again seen only very light use, but having been MOTed in May, 2025, with no advisories, it could certainly be put into more frequent service if desired.

The present reading of 119,000 miles is believed to be genuine and is, of course, a paltry figure when one considers the reputation of Mercedes engineering of the ’80s and ’90s for durability and longevity. The SL is sold with paperwork including some invoices back to 2004 and MOT certificates back to 2010, and instructions for the Sony audio equipment. Also present is the leather book pack, which contains the owner’s manual, the dealership directory, and the separate manuals for soft-top and side-window control and the remote-control locking system.
