R129 SL Mille Miglia

R129 SL Mille Miglia. I've owned this car for 8 years, it's not used regularly and its time for someone else to enjoy it.

As you'll know these are very rare cars, as Mercedes only brought 40 into the UK. Garaged for most of my ownership it comes with two original keys, original service record book & pack. There ar 20 services recorded for the car with the last at 107,108 miles in April 2024. It also has a large history file dating back before my ownership.

The car is in great original condition with no serious corrosion and a very tidy interior. These models came with a number of special features including Evo-2 wheels, red and black interiors, carbon fibre detailing in the cabin, brilliant silver paintwork and chequer plates on the front wings, all are present and correct.

The car starts, runs & stops as it should. All 4 tyres were replaced before the 2024 MOT with Goodyears and have only covered 2700 miles, the battery was replaced in summer 2025. The rear plastic windows were replaced in September 2025 and the soft top can be seen to be in good condition as is the hard top that comes with the vehicle. I had both a gearbox oil change/filter and rear differential oil change completed in 2018 with the mileage at 90219. usual services as per the records.

The car has all the usual features including power operated convertible top, electric windows, automatic air conditioning, central locking, cruise control and power operated and heated front seats. It has a modern audio with blue tooth other than one door speaker everything else works as it should. These cars can have an issue with the remote key failing and immobiliser being permanently alarmed, this issue has been resolved with the immobiliser removed, however the new owner may wich to install a modern immobiliser/alarm, with remote function which will operate directly off the central locking.

It does need a little TLC, there is a small amount of corrosion where the front wings meet the bumpers and other marks on the bodywork commensurate with age. It has had a slight engine oil leak since I've owned the car, however thats never not caused any issues.

It has12 months MOT, one minor defect - ball joint dust cover deteriorated, which will be replaced prior to sale.

These cars are rarely available, this is an opportunity to own a sure fire classic that can be enjoyed straight away.
