The Mercedes-Benz R129 series was produced from 1989 until 2001. The R129 replaced the R107 in 1989.

This Mercedes is in a neat and original condition (interior, engine and transmission are all original). The vehicle starts immediately, shifts smoothly and powerfully through all gears, idles nicely at 900 rpm and brakes properly. It’s really noticeable that the car has been technically well maintained. This Mercedes is further equipped with the original Mercedes rims, neat soft and hardtop and the original leather interior. The paintwork of the car is good, but it does have a few signs of wear (see photos).

A nice incidental benefit is that the car is offered with its history, manuals and even the original proof of purchase of $103,885 from 1992.

This Mercedes is also particularly interesting for business drivers. The price on Catawiki actually includes 21% VAT. And the VAT is tax-deductible for business drivers.

These Mercedes R129 convertibles are starting to increase in value. So don't wait too long and seize this opportunity to become the owner of this wonderful modern classic.
