Lot details

Year: 2003
Make: Mercedes-Benz
Model: SL500
Registration: M500 RDB
Chassis No: WBZ23004752F038646
Odometer: 59,555

Launched in 2001, the R230-generation Mercedes-Benz SL represented a significant evolution of the marque's long-running luxury roadster, combining traditional grand touring refinement with sophisticated technology and impressive performance. The SL500 was powered by Mercedes-Benz's naturally aspirated 5.0 litre V8, producing 302bhp and delivering the effortless performance expected of the model. Its most notable feature was the ingenious electro-hydraulic Vario roof, allowing the car to transform from an elegant coupe into an open-top roadster at the touch of a button.

This example has covered just 59,555 miles and presents an appealing opportunity to acquire one of Mercedes-Benz's most accomplished modern grand tourers. The SL500 offers a particularly attractive combination of V8 performance, comfortable accommodation and all-weather usability, making it equally suited to relaxed touring or more spirited driving.

Unfortunately, the earlier service history file has gone missing, so a complete account of its maintenance from new is no longer available. However, a number of more recent works are documented. These include a replacement alternator in July 2024, followed in November of that year by the replacement of two ABC suspension pipes and a filter. In August 2025, the auxiliary battery was also replaced with a genuine Mercedes-Benz item.

The car has formed part of a substantial private collection in recent years, where it has been maintained and looked after by the vendor's in-house mechanic. Although the loss of its earlier service records is regrettable, the more recent maintenance provides a useful record of attention during the current ownership.

With its silky V8 engine, sophisticated folding hardtop and timeless Mercedes-Benz styling, this 59,000-mile SL500 remains an appealing modern classic, offering considerable refinement and open-air motoring in one very desirable package. Consigned by Fraser Smith
