1962 Mercedes-Benz 190SL

All the glamour of the early ‘60s is embodied in this gorgeous Mercedes Sports. Like most 190SLs produced, this car was shipped new to the USA where wealthy buyers couldn’t get enough of these stylish 2-seater sports car with its reliable 1.9 motor and high quality of build.

In 2010 the car was comprehensively restored by a specialist company in the USA, inside and out, underneath and all mechanicals rebuilt. Then the next owner, being very particular, had the car completely repainted to a very high standard a few years later.

The car was sold to an Australian and left St Louis, Missouri arriving in Perth in November 2019. It has since been a part of a private collection, being used regularly and showing exceptional reliability.

New tyres have been fitted and it’s been upgraded with a Weber carburettor conversion – quite a desirable and sensible change for this model.

The chromework gleams, the interior leather and hardware is spot-on, the soft top is excellent and the car looks quite beautiful. Under the bonnet and in the boot the car also presents very well too.

With other projects on the go, the owner has decided to sell and it’s priced very realistically – check out others on the market.

The plates 190SLR will be changed to another car.
