Kickdown's Take
by Moritz NiemannAn R129 for connoisseurs: the high-revving engine of the 300 SL 24 V harmonizes extremely well with the 5-speed sports transmission, a combination that makes the SL a true sports car. The striking signal red color is also a perfect match. With only about 59,500 kilometers on the odometer and in extremely good condition, this car is ideal for anyone looking for a special SL.
A 1991 Mercedes-Benz 300 SL 24V is for sale in signal red with black leather interior.
