This red Mercedes SL convertible is clearly of fifties vintage. It looks like a restoration project.
If you thought I took this at C&G Auto Tech in Caldwell, New Jersey, you'd be half right. This car was actually at Precision Motors in Caldwell, half a block to the west. :-)
R230
Apart from a smoother design and redesigned headlamps, the 5th-generation SL introduced the 'Vario Roof' retractable hardtop, first seen on the 1996 SLK. Active Body Control, Keyless Go and Sensatronic Brake Control were also new features. A significant facelift followed in 2008, bringing new and revised engines and a new front end inspired by the classic 300 SL, featuring a large grille with a prominent 3-pointed star, twin power domes on the bonnet and redesigned headlights. Up until 2011, a total of 169.433 R230s were produced. The rarest is the SL 65 AMG, with only 3.055 units (350 of which were SL AMG Black Series with fixed roof).

Twin-turbo three-liter V-6 under the hood.
362 horses.
369 pound-feet of torque.
Zero to sixty in under five seconds.
Top speed of 155 miles an hour.
It doesn't get much better than that.
The AMG version does, but it's even more expensive. ;-)

W198 II
In 1957, the 300 SL Gullwing was replaced by the Roadster. Like its predecessor, it was created at the initiative of American importer Max Hoffman. It received an entirely new tubular chassis with lower sills, allowing the installation of conventional doors. The mechanical components remained largely unchanged, but the rear swing axles were replaced by an independent De Dion rear axle, providing smoother suspension and more reliable handling for everyday use. From 1961 onward, the front drum brakes were replaced with disc brakes, and toward the end of production the cast-iron block was replaced by an aluminum one. A stylish hardtop was available as a factory option. Production ended in 1963, with a total of 1.858 roadsters built.

The 1989 Geneva Motor Show was marked by the presentation of the brand new version of the SL, dubbed the R129. This generation represented a real technological leap forward compared to the R107, with the introduction of advanced safety systems such as ESP and a retractable hardtop.
This model was delivered to its first owner on June 22, 1998. The color combination chosen is also one of the most elegant, combining “Midnight Blue” (code 904O) with an exclusive bluegray leather interior (code 518A). Today, the car has only 4,650 km on the odometer. Of course, this model is literally in mint condition, both in terms of its bodywork and interior. Both are extremely well preserved, as is its hardtop, which is still in place and in mint condition.
Our test drive showed us that the car was in good working order, despite the very low mileage in recent years. Of course, a general overhaul would be necessary if the next owner wanted to run this car. Like the other SL in this collection, our car is one of those “exceptions that prove the rule”... The vast majority of SLs, especially in the R129 generation, have clocked up tens of thousands of miles thanks to their outstanding road handling qualities. Finding a model with such reasonable mileage is already a challenge in itself, and will become even more so in the coming years. So don’t miss this opportunity to add to your collection the SL from the 1990s, a symbol of a generation, in such exceptional condition. This opportunity may never come again...

R129
Introduced in 1989 as a 2-passenger convertible with a removable hardtop - the first Mercedes to feature a fully automatic, hydraulically operated fabric convertible top, projector lens HID headlamps (1995) and an automatic rollbar, which self-deployed in a rollover event. The retractable rollbar could also be raised or lowered manually using a switch on the console, and facilitated occupant safety without compromising aesthetics. In 1992, the R129 became the first SL to offer a V12 engine and the first to feature official AMG variants. It was also the last SL to be offered with a manual gearbox. Production continued until 2001.

The Mercedes-Benz SL is a grand tourer manufactured by Mercedes since 1954. The designation SL derives from the German Sport Leicht, or Sport Lightweight.
The term SL-Class refers to the marketing variations of the vehicle, including the numerous engine configurations spanning six design generations.
This is the Sixth Generation 2012 Variation.
Seen here at Mercedes-Benz World, Weybridge, Surrey.
W121
Produced from 1953 to 1963, a total of 25.881 units were built. As early as 1953, development began on an open version of the 180 Ponton sedan. The 190 SL is therefore technically based on the so-called "Ponton Model". It was available only with a 1,9-litre 4 in-line petrol engine equipped with twin carburetors. It was introduced at roughly the same time as the 300 SL Gullwing. It shared some styling features and was intended to be an affordable version of the exclusive sports car. For this reason, Daimler-Benz described it in its brochures as a "touring car" rather than a sports car. In 1963, it was succeeded by the "Pagoda" (W113).
