FOR SALE: UK RHD // Fantastic History // Family owned for 42 years // Hugely Original

EQUIPMENT
UK delivered RHD, Hard top, 3rd Seat, Spare wheel, Passenger mirror, Dash clock.

EXTERIOR
Finished in a classic shade of beige paintwork this 230SL has been treasured by its few owners from new. Sitting with all its original panels, chrome work and its interior trim it’s an example that has avoided being overly restored, extensively taken apart or failing into complete disrepair. It stands very much as it left the factory and as one of the ultimate classic Mercedes.

The colour coding is superbly suited to this model, an elegant and sophisticated shade that suits the classic lines of the era, it contrasts well against the black hard top, black centres of the wheels while mixing with the huge amount of chrome fitted.

INTERIOR
The interior is beautifully apportioned and oozes style. Completely original (other than the carpets) it has avoided any heavy wear. There is plethora of different materials used, chrome, wood, leather, plastics and wood all offering their different textures and colours to add depth and beauty to what must be one of the best classic car cockpits available.

With the addition of the 3rd rear seat it allows a certain amount of further usability. In addition the original hard bench cover for the rear is stowed in the boot along side the spare wheel and jack.

ENGINE & TRANSMISSION
The inline six is in fine fettle having undergone a full strip down at approximately 70k miles with regular maintenance since. The car is due a service which can be done on sale.

The car fires into life with ease and cruises smoothly through its 4 speed manual gearbox.

WHEELS, TYRES & BRAKES
Chrome covers and centre caps finished in black to match the roof are in excellent condition, these cover body coloured wheels. Tyres are Firestone all round with a full amount of tread.

HISTORY FILE
First registered in January 1965 this SL remained in the family until 2007. Treasured, showed, rallied and maintained to the highest order during this time, this SL has retained a huge amount of originality.

Documenting this ownership is detailed in a lovely typed word document with mileage verified by plenty of MOT certificates.

The car has since passed through the hands of three further classic car collectors who have in turn done their part to preserve the provenance of this very special machine.

Original owners manuals are present along side spare keys and further more recent service and maintenance documents.

Please visit our website for a full write up and additional photographs.

The car is supplied having had an extensive intake inspection. Warranty, Finance, Part Exchange and Worldwide shipping are all available on request.
