Description
Includes the private
number plate of VCZ107; 156,386 miles showing; recent full recommissioning; a
new replacement convertible roof has been fitted recently ; MOT valid until
March 2027
Offered for sale is this
attractive 1989 Mercedes-Benz 300 SL, one of the last examples registered in
September 1989. Powered by the 2,999cc petrol engine paired with an automatic
transmission, this well-presented car has had 10 former keepers and has been in
current ownership since September 2025.
In highly desirable Blue/Black
metallic finish, an expensive factory option that perfectly complements its
timeless styling. Further desirable features include leather seats and rear
seating, both costly options when new. The leather upholstery remains in good
condition, while the interior has benefited from refurbishment including new
door cards and carpets.
Having spent many years in dry
storage, the car has since undergone comprehensive recommissioning and a
mechanical overhaul. Additional work includes a high-quality respray, with bare
metal preparation undertaken where appropriate, refurbished alloy wheels
presented in as-new condition, and a recent service including new spark plugs
and ignition leads. The car also benefits from a galvanised bulkhead and is
supplied with a high-quality car cover.
A replacement hood, costing
£670 has recently been fitted as the old hood had a slight tear and some
discolouration to the rear windows. The cherished registration number VCZ 107 is
included in the sale. The car comes with MOT validity until March 2027, along
with a selection of previous MOT certificates.
The 3.0-litre
engine provides excellent performance while offering improved economy compared
with the larger-engined alternatives. Demonstrating its roadworthiness, the
Mercedes was driven over 25 miles to the sale venue and was observed starting,
driving and stopping exactly as expected whilst on site for photographs and a
short video presentation.
