Mercedes 500 SL R129 1997 – 86.000 km 25300 EUR. from Japan

The Mercedes-Benz SL R129 is considered by many brand enthusiasts to be the best compromise between classic design—penned by Bruno Sacco—and modern functionality and ergonomics. The fourth generation of the SL model debuted at the Geneva Motor Show in March 1989 as the first Mercedes roadster with an automatically folding soft top.

In 1995, the model received a major facelift, which included new bumpers (front and rear), side skirts, grille, and clear front turn signals.

The example presented here, offered by Octoclassic, comes from the Japanese market and was a company car owned by R129 enthusiasts—the founders of Octoclassic LTD.

Description:
For sale: Mercedes-Benz 500 SL (R129) from 1997 – accident-free, with an interesting history.
The car was originally purchased in Japan, then transported to Dubai, where it served for two years as a showcase vehicle for the owners of Octoclassic LTD and Octoclassic LLC. This was a representative example—used to assess the quality of parts produced by the company and to demonstrate their meticulous attention to detail, which is crucial in the world of classic cars. You could say it was a calling card that opened many doors in that market.

Due to limited time spent in Dubai, the owners decided to bring the car to Poland. It is now located in Wrocław and available for sale.

An additional benefit is the option to equip the car with a selected Octoclassic parts package. The photos show interior elements in Brillant Silver Metallic (744U)—a set including seat side trims, seatbelt covers, and seat control panels. The value of this package is 1200 GBP, but it’s included free of charge for the new owner.
