There is a romantic love affair with open European sports cars. The second-generation Mercedes Roadster epitomizes that sentiment. What?s appealing about the car is its unique styling, which is clearly linked to earlier Sindelfingen designs continuing the broad front grill and pontoon fender treatment reminiscent of its predecessor; the 300 SL. They are very reliable with great performance to match and during their nine year production run the body remained largely unchanged with only engine, mechanical, minor interior, improvements and a continued focus on safety.
They say that a car?s value is determined by its condition. Well here we have a legitimate one owner car with 14,000 original miles. This Red survivor comes with its original window sticker, warranty card, tool kit, service records and both tops. The car is extremely well preserved; the black interior is in original condition and is completely stock rights down to every stitch in the German square weave carpet and the Becker AM/FM radio. This car has had a recent service and is ready for the road?but wait?BTB 14,000 original miles, drive it or preserve it?.well that is for the new owner to decide. It is said that a Mercedes gives a person real enjoyment and pride of ownership, so whether you drive it on the road or display it in your living room, this SL is a testament to pedigree.
