Silver Arrows 1 of 100 UK cars, Electric heated leather seats, Panoramic roof - hard top, AMG Bodykit, 18'' Split rim alloy wheels

With the R129 having been in production between 1989 and 2002, the limited edition SL500 Silver Arrow was released for two major reasons; to mark the end of production of a model that had been particularly successful worldwide and, more importantly, to pay homage to not just one of the greatest Mercedes-Benz Works drivers, but one of the greatest drivers of all time, Sir Stirling Moss OBE. The special edition Silver Arrow boasted a unique specification which included Silver Arrow '777' paintwork, black/silver Nappa leather upholstery, AMG body styling, bespoke 18" multi-piece alloy wheels, silver brake callipers, chrome-sheen aluminium exterior trim, illuminated door sills, 'engine-turned' aluminium instrument and gearshift surrounds and Bird's-Eye Maple Black wood trim. Only 100 special-edition SL500 Silver Arrow cars were allocated to the UK-market. Registered in September 2001, this SL500 is one of those 100 UK Silver Arrows. This Silver Arrow is a wonderful example, complemented by a reassuringly large history file showcasing the level of care and maintenance lavished upon it. Within the history file is the original owners book pack wallet containing the owner's manual, supplementary manuals and stamped service book. In addition to the official documentation, there is a plethora of old MOT Certificates, numerous previous invoices, a selection of former tax discs, 'Own A Limited Edition Mercedes SL' sales literature and two sets of keys. The car presents exceptionally well, having covered a modest 59,500 miles from new in the hands of its four Owners. In March 2024, the car benefited from a service and MOT by a marque specialist, which it passed with 'No Advisories'. Limited edition Mercedes-Benz have been appreciating rapidly and this wonderful Silver Arrows represents serious value and would look at home anywhere you park it. This Mercedes has a new MOT until the 18th of March 2026 with no advisory notes as well as a full pre sale inspection. Full service history with services completed at 12.5k, 21.6k, 26.7k, 28.6k, 32.6k, 36.2k, 42.1k, 50.2k, 55.7k, 57.2k and 59.2k by a combination of Mercedes dealers and Mercedes specialists.
