The original 1954 Mercedes-Benz SL (Sports Leicht) was crowned sports car of the century so with lineage this iconic, the 2013 R231 SL500 had big shoes to fill.

Having shaved a whopping 140kg of weight from the previous model with an all new aluminium/magnesium body the R231 SL500 is leaner, more agile and jam packed with new technology including the selectably transparent retractable glass roof called Magic Sky Control.

The SL 500's 4.7 bi-turbo BlueDIRECT V8 outputs 320kW at 5250rpm and a grin-inducing 700Nm of torque. The engine produces 20kW more in SL guise than it does in any other contemporary model with enough horsepower to propel it from 0-100km/h in just 4.6 seconds.

Pre-Safe, Attention Assist, intelligent lighting, lane keeping, active blind-spot assist and internet access are all included and an optional AMG package with sports-suspension lowers the body for a more aggressive style and improved road holding.

The car offered was delivered new by Hunter Star Mercedes-Benz in May of 2013 to its one and only owner and ordered in the stunning combination of Obsidian Black over Nut-Brown Nappa Leather upholstery and Gloss Black Ashwood trim.
