Mercedes-Benz SL 500 SL 500 V8, 2004 р.в.

HistoryIntroduced in 2001, the R230-generation Mercedes-Benz SL represented a significant evolution of the legendary SL lineage, combining Mercedes-Benz’s traditional emphasis on luxury and refinement with advanced technology and genuinely sporting performance.The SL 500 was powered by Mercedes-Benz’s 5.0-litre naturally aspirated V8, producing 306 bhp and driving the rear wheels through the five-speed automatic transmission. Its combination of effortless performance, long-distance comfort and sophisticated engineering made the SL 500 one of the most accomplished grand tourers of its era.The R230 also introduced a number of significant technological features to the SL range, including the innovative Vario roof, an electrohydraulically operated folding hardtop that transformed the car from a refined coupé into an open-top roadster at the touch of a button.For the 2004 model year, Mercedes-Benz offered an extensive range of optional equipment, allowing customers to specify their SL with a remarkable level of luxury, technology and performance-related equipment.About This CarThis exceptionally well-preserved Mercedes-Benz SL 500 was delivered new in Germany in 2004 and is presented in an elegant silver exterior over a grey leather interior.The car has covered just 46,000 km from new, a remarkably low mileage for a 2004 SL, and presents in excellent condition both inside and out.Its specification is particularly noteworthy, with a comprehensive selection of desirable factory options and equipment, including: AMG brake system AMG 18-inch alloy wheels Panoramic glass Vario roof Heated and ventilated front seats Multicontour front seats Massaging seats Steering-wheel gearshift controls Bi-Xenon headlights COMAND navigation and infotainment system Premium sound system CD changer Keyless-Go Parktronic parking sensors Garage door opener Electrically folding exterior mirrors Tyre-pressure monitoring system Interior alarm monitoring Heated windscreen washer system Designo Alcantara headliner Leather and wood steering wheel Wood gear selectorService bookThe combination of its very low 46,000 km mileage, German delivery, attractive colour combination and extensive factory specification makes this a particularly appealing example of the R230 SL 500.The car retains the character that made the SL such a successful grand tourer: the smooth and powerful naturally aspirated V8, effortless automatic transmission, sophisticated suspension and exceptional refinement are equally suited to long-distance touring or relaxed open-top driving.The panoramic glass roof is especially effective, allowing the car to retain the character of a coupé while providing the option of open-air motoring whenever desired.
