1961 Mercedes 300SL Roadster Unrestored matching numbers EU car SOLD

We are pleased and proud to offer another "True Great"
Mercedes 300SL Roadster 1961 European car.
The car comes with an amazing full owmership history since new, tools and is unrestored.

1961 European Specification, Disc Brake 300 SL Roadster.

The best specification - Disc brakes- stronger Steel block and EU spec and of course matching numbers.

- Rare factory disc brake car delivered in 1961 (only ca. 269 cars had these sought after combination of the robust steel engine block with the new all-round disc brakes)
- Matching numbers
- Tools
- Italian delivery, only very few were delivered in Europe with European specs (Long rear axle, European instruments, European headlamps, No Additional Rear Reflectors)
- Delivered in white-grey over black leather, still in original colour combo with a very well kept original interior.
- Only 6 documented previous Italian owners from new
- Very original condition with one re-spray in its original colour

One of the most genuine, unmolested and original cars in the world today.
The car is completely matching numbers, chassis, body, engine, gearbox, rear axle AND both front axles. This is very rare indeed.
The colour and some of the trim is original too.

The car has had just 5 owners and has until now never left Italy (now in the UK)
One owner had the car for 30 + years.
The provenance is faultless.
Especially when you consider this is European Disc brake car.

The paintwork is an older repaint in the correct colour.

The trim of the car is part original and part replaced.
The bottom cushions have been replaced with new. The material is very very close to the original but not quite correct, the original cushions are with the car.
The trim around the dash, doors and sills is very good and original.


Underneath the car is wonderful, no serous oil leaks at all, the chassis is completely straight, absolutely no signs of accident damage, no corrosion. There is a small some paint flaking away In the wheel arches, this could be very easily painted.

The car drives exceptionally well. It is clearly very well sorted, the engine is very powerful and very smooth, the suspension is very well sorted, and the car rides very well, the steering is very good, gearbox is easy to use and smooth.
Mechanically the car is fantastic.


The specification of the car is very rare, and desirable and the provenance is unbeatable
