The SL emerged as a beautifully styled coupe at the end of the ’80s having quickly made headlines around the world throughout its production time of 6 years.
The SL was available in different versions and power outputs from the base 300SL (190hp for the European model/228hp for the US) to the 500SL which delivered 322hp thanks to its 5.0 L petrol unit with a V8 cylinder configuration. The specs on this particular model were very high on both European and North American markets with the car having been released with standard electric windows, mirrors, roof and seats.
