Mercedes Benz 300SL 24V R129 (1992)

Louis Kalendruschat

Kickdown's Take

by Louis Kalendruschat

The 300 SL 24V is arguably the sportiest way to drive an R129. Accordingly, the 5-speed sports transmission, as installed in this vehicle, pairs exceptionally well with the 24V. The SL on offer also stands out for its elegant color scheme. With a valid TÜV inspection and fully functional equipment, it’s ready to hit the road right away.

Technically, the roadster was partially based on the W 124, but featured a specially reinforced body, a modern multi-link rear suspension, and an automatically deploying roll bar. The R 129 was initially offered with inline-six and V8 engines, and later with a V12 engine as well.
