A classic with soul and proof of the quality of Mercedes engineering of the 1980s - ready for long drives and collector's rallies.
History & provenance
We are offering an exceptional 1982 Mercedes-Benz 500 SL, imported to Poland from the United States in 2022. The car originally came to the USA from Dubai in 1984, and has been in the hands of one owner since 1989, who purchased it from a car dealership and serviced it there regularly for many years. At the time of purchase in 1989, she was 47 years old and records show that the car had spent most of its time in the garage for several years prior to its importation to Poland, as evidenced by both its technical and visual condition.
Technical condition and service
In 2023, the car underwent a comprehensive technical inspection and a Classic-Tour trip to Greece, during which it covered more than 4,000 km without any problems. This is the best proof of its reliability.
