Description
Registration number: MB-07-08
In 1955, Mercedes-Benz introduced the 190SL, an affordable two-seater convertible that was heavily inspired by the iconic 300SL in its design. This beautiful classic, equipped with a 1,897-cc four-cylinder engine and a manual four-speed gearbox, offers a unique driving experience. Unlike the 300SL, the 190SL uses a shortened chassis from the W121 sedan.
This 190SL is truly in excellent condition thanks to a complete ‘nut and bolt’ restoration. The bodywork is sleek and clean, with excellent alignment of the hinged parts. The seams between the sheet metal parts are also beautifully finished. The restoration is extensively documented, showing that the bodywork, interior, and technical aspects have been fully and expertly restored/revised. The chrome work, for example, is in new condition and stands out beautifully against the dark gray paint.
The interior of this Mercedes-Benz 190SL is breathtakingly beautiful and executed in a lovely color scheme. The dashboard, for example, has beautiful gauges that are in excellent condition. The brown leather complements well with the interior, including the stylish dashboard, door panels, and seats. The interior is also completely renewed, including the leather upholstery and all the carpets, all done with care. The beautiful steering wheel and gear knob contrast nicely with the brown leather and the dark gray paint. The interior therefore exudes absolute class, just as you would expect from a Mercedes-Benz.
Under the hood, it continues, as the whole engine bay looks fantastic. This is not surprising since the car has hardly been driven since the restoration and overhaul work. The four-cylinder engine has been completely overhauled and runs beautifully.
This Mercedes-Benz 190SL is a fantastic example, restored and revised to a high standard with a naturally stylish appearance, perfect for the true classic car enthusiast. The complete restoration ensures that this car is in absolute top condition, both optically and technically. This is a unique opportunity to own a piece of automotive history.
