$90,000 new in 98 and still a dream for under 15k
This car was an absolute legend in its day and still is today. It has become a classic and is one of the only reliable Mercedes ever made. The R129 model is THE one.

What a convertible should be!
If you want Mercedes Benz luxury and performance in a convertible package and you want to look good doing it, then this car is for you! The 129 chassis SL500 exudes everything a convertible should be for an affordable price. This model is reliable and a blast to drive! When buying one just make sure the hydraulic cylinders for the convertible top are in good condition.

Even at 22 years old my car turns heads
I bought my car a year ago and it needed a fair bit of TLC; I've now worked through all the issues and I can honestly say this car gives me more pleasure than any car I've ever owned including a couple of Porsche 911's, it's comfortable, quick and oozes class

Responded quickly with info, pictures and a video of the car. Very professional. I would recommend them.
Fun and reliable
It's super fast. It's cool looking and fun to drive. Mercedes is always more advanced. So this care being a 1998 has everything that a 2012 car has.
