1998 Mercedes-Benz 320SL | Cambridge, Suffolk

A 1998 Mercedes-Benz 320SL, from the R129 generation of the SL roadster. The model is known for its long bonnet, steeply raked windscreen and relaxed, comfortable pace. Its fabric roof folds away under a tonneau cover, and a hardtop can be fitted over it. This car is blue with a black leather interior, and is in very good condition. The 3200cc engine delivers its power smoothly and quietly, so the car feels settled at a steady speed. With the roof up the cabin is snug and private; with it down, the black leather shows well from outside. Film and television productions set in the late 1990s will find the car's angular shape and clean lines place it firmly in the period. Those same lines suit fashion and editorial photography, where the blue bodywork gives a calm, polished backdrop. For a wedding arrival or a personal day out, it offers a relaxed open-top drive. The car is based in Cambridge, Suffolk.
