The R129 must surely be near the top of that list. The 500 SL was the flagship model, powered by the bombproof M119 5.0-litre V8 - an engine that produced more power than some Ferraris of the same era.It was also one of the safest cars of its time, equipped with Mercedes' innovative automatic roll bar ("Wunderbar"), which deploys within milliseconds in the event of a rollover. Even today, the R129 is regarded as an exceptionally safe sports car to own.This handsome example has been in the same family for many years, owned by Nick for the past three and previously by his father. Presented in Azurite Blue over grey leather, with long-term family ownership and service history, it makes for a very attractive package as it heads to auction with us. **** VEHICLE DETAIL **** We've written a longer and detailed description about this vehicle on our website that will have all of your burning questions answered.
