Ainsi que le confirme sa fiche signalétique, ce roadster 500 SL a été livré le 24 janvier 1997, avant d'être immatriculé le 13 mars suivant. La carrosserie retient une rare et élégante teinte noire émeraude métallisée, mariée à un intérieur cuir noir avec capote assortie. Elle est accompagnée d'un rare hard-top panoramique (qui sera fourni avec son support), équipement particulièrement recherché. La voiture dispose, en outre, de sièges électriques optionnels, d'un lecteur CD et d'un filet anti-remous. Son actuelle propriétaire en a fait l'acquisition en Belgique en juin 2015 alors que la voiture affichait 140 000 km au compteur, et a depuis parcouru plus de 18 000 km.

La capote électrique est en bon état de fonctionnement et la toile a été refaite en 2012. La dernière révision avec vidange moteur et contrôle des niveaux a été effectuée en août 2021. Les jantes en alliage sont chaussées de pneus Bridgestone de 2016 peu usés. Les factures des travaux effectués depuis 2015 figurent dans le dossier, accompagnées des carnets, à l'exception du carnet d'entretien. Un double des clés complète ces éléments.

La 500 SL constitue un excellent compromis entre confort et performances, cet exemplaire permet de surcroît d'avoir le choix entre une carrosserie ouverte et un coupé rendu plus élégant grâce à la finesse des montants de son hard-top et agréable par la luminosité que confère son toit vitré. En somme, le meilleur des deux mondes. French title Chassis n ° WDB1290671F149598 - Superb colour combination - Equipped with a rare panoramic hard-top - European version - No reserve As confirmed by its data sheet, this 500 SL roadster was delivered on January 24, 1997, before being registered the following March 13th.

The body retains a rare and elegant emerald-black metallic hue, combined with a black leather interior with matching soft top. It comes with a rare panoramic hard-top (which will be supplied with its support), particularly sought-after equipment. The car also has optional electric seats, a CD-player and a splash net. Its current owner acquired it in Belgium in June 2015 when the car had 140,000 km on the odometer, and has since driven a little over 18,000 km. The electric soft top is in good working order and the canvas was redone in 2012. The last service with engine oil change and level control was carried out in August 2021.

The alloy rims are shod with lightly worn 2016 Bridgestone tyres. Invoices for work carried out since 2015 are in the folder, along with the manuals, with the exception of the service manual. An extra set of keys complete these elements. The 500 SL is an excellent compromise between comfort and performance, and this example also gives the choice between an open body and a coupe made that much more elegant thanks to the finesse of the uprights of its hard-top and the brightness thanks to the glass roof, promising the best of both worlds.
