Vehicle Detail
For sale is my 1998 Mercedes Benz SL600 Lorinser. You would be very hard pressed to ever find another yellow R129 for sale in the states, especially with the legendary V12 motor and Lorinser kit as this one does. This car also comes equipped with the very rare and desirable two piece, staggered AMG monoblock wheels. The front bumper, rear bumper, spoiler, and exhaust are all authentic and original Lorinser parts (side skirt is AMG). The car does come with the original windscreen which can be secured in the trunk when not in use. The convertible top is in excellent condition and all the motors work great, many of which have been rebuilt/replaced within the last few months. I have service receipts totaling over $6,000 in work that I've had done to this car to keep it in top running condition. The car wears a full set of brand new Continental Extremecontact Sport tires. The leather is in excellent condition with no tears or discoloring. The woodgrain is all in tact with no discoloring, however, some hair line cracks are visible on the steering wheel from the heat over the years. I am the third owner and had planned to keep this car in my collection. Unfortunately, I can't keep them all and I have another R129 in the stable already. The original owner is rumored to be Luis Castillo from the Marlins late 90s team although I have no service records from that time and due to privacy laws am unable to attain any with his name on them. The second owner was the owner of multiple golf courses and used it as a weekend leisure vehicle. The R129 Mercedes is appreciating in value and is sure to become another classic amongst it's SL predecessors which have all become collectibles. Over the years I have owned 5 R129s total and can attest that this is one of the most rare and well kept examples out there.
