PENDING SALE
$9,999

Mercedes-Benz replaced its successful R107 SL-Class with the R129 in 1988.

If that kind of value proposition appeals to you, here’s a 1994 Mercedes-Benz SL500 from Virginia with under 43,000 miles to its name. This car is said to be all stock save for an upgraded radio. Let’s see what it offers.
