1959 Mercedes - Benz 300 SL Roadster W198 II

Chassis no. 198042109500057 - Engine no. 198980109500056 Color: 172 Grau with brown leather interior Registration: Dutch One of the most desirable classics of all time - the 300 SL Roadster combines timeless elegance with uncompromising engineering. Only 1.858 examples were built between 1957 and 1963; this particular example was delivered new in Dortmund, Germany, in 1959 and spent years in California before returning to Europe in 1991, where it has remained in private ownership ever since. The car was professionally restored in the past and repainted in 172 Grau, an original Mercedes color, and fitted with a beautiful brown leather interior. An extensive mechanical overhaul took place in 2008 (invoices available), and major maintenance was recently performed again. Disc brakes are fitted at the front for improved driving comfort. The 3,0-liter six-cylinder with direct fuel injection delivers its power smoothly and powerfully; the car drives superbly and is a true pleasure for both touring and concours events.
