The R129 model was built between 1989 and 2001. The base model is the 190 hp 3.0 L inline 6 300SL with 12 valves. The 228 hp 3.0 L inline 6 with 24 valves is known as the 300SL 24 . But it was the 322 hp 500SL , with a 5.0 L V8 engine, which made the most headlines. The specification was high, with electric windows, mirrors, seats and roof. The R129 model was the first convertible/roadster to offer the automatic roll bar deployment in event of rollover. The motorist can also manually raise and lower the roll bar should he choose to. This facilitates the clean look of R129 without compromising the occupant's safety.

Mercedes-Benz R129 280SL convertible presented in Azurite blue with blue hood, matching hard top and Mushroom leather interior. Optional factory extras to include electric seats, electric door mirrors, cruise control and remote central locking. The car has covered only 71,000 miles, with only two owners from new, the current owner from 1996. Recently serviced with new brake discs and pads all round. and new plastic rear windows. The wheels and tyres are all in excellent condition. Supplied with 12 months MOT this early R129 Convertible is in excellent condition throughout and drives superbly.

These early R129 SL Convertibles are steadily increasing in value and the 280 is an economical classic that can be used daily.
