This car is now SOLD!

That was a rare colour on a R129. I was a salesman at a merc main dealer from 1994 , and this colour had been fased out a few years previously, it’s called “impala”

That’s not a wind deflector it’s a roll

Proper gentleman's car. Looks the part still too. Could see this sitting on some nice wheels with a good suspension setup and would turn heads everywhere. Perfect car for the Channel

They just don’t make them like that anymore!!! Pure class

Proud owner of a 92 SL with came with a set of monoblocks. Absolutely love driving the car, the funny thing is keep accelerating past 60mph and it’s truly amazing how well they pull

Love it Calvin more like this.. 31years old, the weight of a tank and still 6.7 thats unreal, plus well over 100k. Ten grand .... yes please.

Can understand why this r129 SL is sold. Bruno Sacco design and a beautiful colour scheme, no wonder. Wonderful review and thank you for sharing Calvin. The R129 SL is the SL I grew up with. Engineering masterpiece that's glorious look and listen to. By far the most glamorous of the SLs. Keep em coming please!!

I love the older SL's, they just ooze quality and elegance

More cars like this please Calvin! Love the older Mercs and Beemers. Nice to see stuff in original condition but also love the stanced ones too.

It’s a rollover hoop not a wind deflector.

bet it'd be faster with the roof on. Quality content as usual Calv

More cars of this vintage please Calvin, these are the cars I lusted after as a kid and they are now super affordable.

Love the classic car videos Calvin 🥰

One of my fave youtube channel, back to back awesome content, keep up the excellent work. 👍

We have had one in the family for over 25 years. Went to my first day of school in one. ❤️

@calvin's car diary - you can do a spec check by putting the VIN into any online decoder. The Konig you mentioned is an R107 and that is the roll bar not the wind deflector.

Nice old SL, superb build quality, expensive if they go wrong, so always buy the best you can afford.

Calv mate that’s the anti roll bar you put up the wind deflector is in the boot. Roll bar was a safety feature in the SL’s in case you toppled the car over. Hired one of these in 95/96 for a wedding. Was a convertible with a folding roof. What a car. Can’t beat these old school classics.

We like these older big engine cars Calvin 💪 most car KZfaqrs focus on the unobtainable and latest super cars, nice to see this type of content as it's more relatable.
