Isn’t she gorgeous? Any version or colour of the Mercedes-Benz 190SL is joy to behold. This colour combination elevates this car to an exceptional category. The “Erdbeer Rot” exterior is complemented by the cream-coloured interior and graces this 62 year old 190SL with youthful fresh looks. Since 2000 this car has Dutch registration and has been extensively restored over the last few years. The works were carried by a renowned Mercedes-Benz specialist and extensively documented. The result is there for everyone to be seen. The red paintwork is in lovely condition and was expertly applied during restoration. The top-quality bodywork has wonderful thin and correctly aligned panelwork. The brilliant brightwork and hubcaps look exactly as they should. The fine light brown carpets contrast really well with the beige leather trim. The high quality workmanship is immediately obvious. The leather has aged nicely and has developed a lovely patina. The remainder of the interior is just as fine. Each and everyone of the controls and instruments are in perfect working order. Mechanically the car is also perfect. A peep under the bonnet will transport you back to 1962 when the car was new. The ignition, cable looms, hoses, the block all look like they have just rolled off the production line. It will come as no surprise that driving this magnificent machine is pure joy. This 190SL may have nearly reached the early retirement age but is fitter than many a 30 year old. A perfectly running engine and a smoothly working clutch and gearbox all contribute to a pleasurable driving experience. The 190Sl’s suspension is perfectly sprung and dampened thanks to the use of many new parts adding to its modern roadholding sensation.
