Mercedes-Benz SL 320 “Edition”

Vehicle Description

This Mercedes-Benz SL 320 special model “SL Edition” from August 2000 is a rare and particularly high-quality example of the legendary R129 series. First registered in Germany and with only three previous owners who kept the vehicle exclusively in Germany, this SL impresses with a traceable, well-maintained history and a plausible mileage, as evidenced by the relevant documents.

The roadster is powered by the proven 3.2-liter V6 gasoline engine with 165 kW (224 hp), combined with a 5-speed automatic transmission. The engine stands for refined running characteristics, superior power delivery, and high long-term reliability—perfectly matching the comfortable and sporty character of the SL.

The “SL Edition” clearly stands out from the series with numerous exclusive details:

Interior
· Nappa leather seats with silver stitching
(perforated seat cushions, backrests, and headrests)
· Black bird’s-eye maple wood trim with metallic effect
· Instrument cluster with aluminum-look front frame and white needles
· Illuminated stainless steel door sill panels
· High-quality appearance with clear design lines and handcrafted character

Exterior
· Brilliant silver metallic special paint finish
· Black fabric soft top
· Two-piece light-alloy wheels in 6-hole design

o Front: 8.5 J x 18
o Rear: 9.5 J x 18

· “SL Edition” badge on the lower left of the front fender

The extensive standard equipment (including xenon headlights) is stylishly complemented by the edition details. The overall condition is very good—the vehicle does not show its age of almost 25 years.

Minor vandalism damage was professionally repaired by the last owner (former sales manager at Mercedes-Benz); the paintwork cost around €2,500 and is visually flawless.

Conclusion
The Mercedes-Benz SL 320 Edition (R129) is an elegant, sophisticated roadster with rarity value. The exclusive special equipment, low mileage, German history, and very well-maintained condition make this vehicle an attractive collector’s item—but also a comfortable classic for relaxed drives.

An SL for connoisseurs who appreciate quality, understatement, and timeless elegance.
A classic that matures—not ages.
