The Mercedes-Benz SL has a long and illustrious history dating back to 1954. Arguably, one of the most popular variants was the R107 of 1971-1989. Riding on the coat-tails of its success, the follow-up would need to be spectacular. That's why Mercedes-Benz went all-out with the R129, sporting a fresh Bruno Sacco-penned design, more power, and upgraded technological features. Over thirty years later, cars such as this 1991 Mercedes-Benz 300SL still turn heads. With 74,500 miles since new, this particular R129 isn't a garage queen, nor is it a high miler. Instead, it's a practical and usable collectible that's nearly attained classic status.
Wearing a black and silver two-tone paint job, this 1991 Mercedes-Benz 300SL is a timeless automobile, helped by its period alloy wheels. You'll also note the dinky wipers for each headlamp that work in conjunction with the headlight washers to keep them clean. Furthermore, the current owner includes not only the color-matched removable hard top but a cart to safely store it within your garage. When the hard top is not installed on the car, you can always deploy the electrically operated black soft top should the need arise. Inside, we've got a leather and wood-trimmed two-seat cabin with the best creature comforts of the time. These include automatic climate control with a functional heater plus a functional air conditioner. The current owner tells us that the system has undergone an R-134A refrigerant conversion for easier maintenance. You've also got power windows, power mirrors, power door locks, and even cruise control. One minor snafu reported is that the passenger-side power window does not function. An aftermarket JVC AM/FM radio head unit with CD playback has been installed at some point in this car's life.
This 1991 Mercedes-Benz 300SL is powered by an adequately powerful 3.0L in-line six-cylinder engine that developed 228hp when new, and it sends drive to the rear wheels via a 5-speed 5G-TRONIC automatic transmission. The 300SL is also more fuel-efficient than the V8-engined 500SL, another pleasant benefit of this car. Independent suspension all-round ensures that handling is what you'd expect of a top-tier Mercedes-Benz product. Disc brakes on all four wheels with ABS ensure steady stops, while power steering is present too.

The Mercedes-Benz SL-class has represented the pinnacle of two-seat sports cars and grand tourers since Mercedes-Benz introduced the lineup in 1954. While the R107 generation, of which we've sold many, is iconic, what followed in the shape of the R129 took the SL to greater heights. This 1991 Mercedes-Benz 300SL Roadster belongs to that generation and comes to you with just 43,700 miles reported by the current owner. One key is also included in the sale.
Mercedes-Benz’s G-Class is well-known as a tough and fierce off-roader that’s now become a sort of S-Class for off-roading in terms of comfort, tech, and luxury features. This wasn’t always the case, so let’s wind back the clock to the time when the G-Class was just entering the luxury space. This was the time when the W463 generation was entering the market, around 1990. These G-Classes are special because they’ve got a great blend of capability and luxury without over-complicating things with myriad digital screens, touch panels and fingerprint readers. Case in point, this 2000 Mercedes-Benz G500 Cabriolet. With 82,500 miles on the clock and a two-door drop-top body style, this could be your daily driver and your weekend toy, all rolled into one. Oh, and it’s got a V8 under the hood; need we say more?
Being a manufacturer and making a statement in the ʼ80s was a tough task, as the automotive world was on full blast with cars making the move to more tech and a change in design to suit a massive shift in customer tastes and preferences. Mercedes-Benz in the 80s was peak German automotive and the secret to its success? Staying true to who they are and giving the world true luxury and superior engineering over marketing gimmicks. Present today is this 1988 Mercedes-Benz 420SEL, this German classic is a love letter to luxury cruising in style and has just a reported 140,316 miles on its clock.
The Mercedes-Benz G-Class has become such a style statement in urban circles that it’s incredible off-road abilities have almost been forgotten. Created as a sturdy off-roader, the G-Class has since morphed with luxury like an S-Class with an SUV body and the capability to rival many purpose-built off-roaders when the going gets tough. This 29,766-mile, Las Vegas-based 2020 Mercedes-Benz G550 is no different, as all it needs is a swapping of its Pirelli Scorpion Verde all-season tires with something meatier, and it’s ready to tackle the great outdoors. So, if you want a luxurious family off-roader that looks tough and can walk the talk, this vehicle is your best bet.
In the ʼ00s, Ford decided to honor its timeless Thunderbird personal luxury car with a retro-modern eleventh generation. Produced for just three short years, this eleventh-generation T-Bird saw over 60,000 units made. Heavily inspired by the first generation from the 1950s, this new T-Bird sat on a modern platform, and used a V8 from Jaguar, of all places. Today, we’ve got a 2003 Ford Thunderbird for those who are intrigued by this pastiche of ʼ50s styling and ʼ00s mechanicals and creature comforts. The car has done only 8,312 miles, making it a real rare find, and a definitive future classic.
Here’s an interesting little curio that you won’t easily find in North America. A meticulously-restored 1993 Volkswagen Cabriolet. This 168,800-mile car is basically a drop-top first generation Volkswagen Golf. The Mark I or first generation Golf saw a long production run, with the Cabriolet running well into 1993. Plus, the Mark I Golf is considered to be one of the icons of the ʼ80s; a fine-driving hot hatchback that can put a smile on anyone’s face. That’s why whoever chooses to pick up this 1993 Volkswagen Cabriolet is definitely going to be very happy. Is that you, then? Call us if it is.
In 1955, the Ford Thunderbird entered the American luxury car market and shook it up. Aimed at bringing Americans a taste of the European Grand Touring experience, the Thunderbird was called the Personal Luxury Car. It was a powerful two-seater with a suitably spacious trunk and all the creature comforts of the day. Aimed at covering hundreds of miles with ease, the T-Bird quickly became a cult classic. Ford made ten generations until 1997, but they had a brief change of heart in 2002. Hence, a retro-modern eleventh generation was released, and made until 2005. Just 60,000 were sold, making this generation relatively rare in comparison with the early ones from the Fifties and Sixties. So, if you’ve wanted to try out one of these curios, check out this 4,475-mile 2002 Ford Thunderbird that’s for sale right now with us.
