Selling A Classic Mercedes?
Some of the most-favored and sought after classic Mercedes-Benz automobiles are the supercharged pre-war era cars, and Mercedes convertibles into the late 1960s early 70s. The SL-Class grand tourer, manufactured since 1954, is the Sport Lightweight model. Numerous variations within the SL line can be found including engine configurations. The first generation of SL, both the Mercedes-Benz 300SL and 190SL, had their start in 1954.
Until 1963 1.9 and 3.0L, four speed manuals were produced. There were over 25,000 four cylinder 190SL Mercedes sold. If you buy or sell classic Mercedes you’ll find both coups, removable hardtops, and convertible soft tops.
The second generation was offered as a four speed automatic or manual transmission as well as a five speed manual. The engine sizes were 2.3, 2.5, or 2.8. The 230SL had big curved windows and a distinctive roofline. Around 1967 the 230SL became known as the 250SL. The engine was displaced and increased again until it became the 280SL, a favorite vintage Mercedes.

“I just sold my 2003 Mercedes Benz SL 55 AMG to Alex after owning it for 19 years. Many of my Friends recommended Adds or Bring a Trailer, but that worried me and it sounded like asking for trouble.I came across on the internet with one of Alex ads for Porsche cars and decided to call to see if he would be interested in my Mercedes, I spoke to him personally and he said Yes! Best decision I have made selling a car instead of trading in at dealers or selling by owner. The whole process was easy, fair, fast and efficient. I would highly recommend dealing with Alex and his staff. In fact, I was so satisfied that I will call him first, when I decide to sell my 1984 Porsche 911 Carrera coupe. Forget Bring a Trailer!”
