Zustand technisch
The famous inline-six runs very smoothly. Slightly high idle when cold. Cylinder head gasket replaced and head resurfaced by the current owner. Shifts nicely and feels stable on the road. All technical functions are in working order. The A/C works intermittently, so a recharge is recommended for full functionality. According to the knowledgeable owner, it could also be a contact issue. Brakes are in good condition. Exhaust system replaced with a Remus twin-pipe, producing a very pleasant sound. OZ wheels with some oxidation and scuff marks. Older but approved tires. Clean engine bay with new sound-insulating mat under the hood. Some damage to the mat near the firewall. Comes with two keys.
-
Zustand Interieur
Very nice interior overall. A very small damage in the leather can be found on the driver’s seat. Larger speakers have been fitted in the door panels – not original, but done in a fairly neat way.
-
Zustand Exterieur
There are some details to address which would significantly improve the overall impression. The right front fender has numerous scratches and would benefit from a repaint. Similar scratches are found on the right rear quarter panel near the fuel cap. A few small bubbles are visible on the left rear quarter panel. Scuff marks on the right front bumper. The soft top is in good condition, although the windows are slightly cloudy. The hardtop is in very good condition.

Zustand gesamt
A good overall impression with nice potential for further improvements. The car feels sound technically, with some exterior work remaining as previously mentioned.

Fakten zum Modell
History of the SL Series
The Mercedes-Benz SL series has a long and rich history, beginning in the 1950s with the original 300 SL (W198), famous for its gullwing doors and sporty performance. Over the decades, SL models have stood as symbols of luxury, performance, and innovative engineering.
Development of the 300 SL 24V
The 300 SL 24V was launched in 1990 as part of the fourth-generation SL models, known as the R129. This generation introduced numerous technical innovations and a modern design, making it a popular choice among car enthusiasts.
Powered by a 3.0-liter inline-six engine with 24 valves, the 300 SL 24V delivers around 228 horsepower, providing strong performance and acceleration. This was a significant step up compared to earlier SL models.
Its design combines elegance and sportiness, with a sleek profile and traditional doors (unlike the original gullwing). The streamlined body enhances both aesthetics and aerodynamics.
Inside, the 300 SL 24V offers a luxurious cabin with high-quality materials and advanced features, including climate control and a premium sound system. Ergonomically designed seats ensure comfort on long drives.
The R129 generation became well-known for its safety innovations, such as a rigid body structure, airbags, and advanced braking systems, which improved driving safety significantly.
Today, the 300 SL 24V is highly sought after among collectors thanks to its combination of classic styling, modern performance, and cutting-edge technology of its time. Many enthusiasts regard it as one of the most representative models in the SL lineage.
Production of the R129 continued until 2002, but the 300 SL 24V holds a special place in history as one of Mercedes-Benz’s most successful and well-balanced sports cars.
Summary
The Mercedes-Benz 300 SL 24V from 1990 blends timeless design with modern performance and safety features, making it a beloved and respected model among enthusiasts and collectors. It continues to stand as a symbol of luxury and engineering excellence in the automotive world.
