2001 Mercedes Benz R129 / SL600R - Pristine / Collector Grade Car

VERYRARE 2001 MERCEDES R129 SL600R (R129) IN ONE OF MOST DESIRABLE COLOR COMBOS BRILLIANT SILVER (744) EXTERIOR /EXCLUSIVE BLACK NAPA LEATHER INTERIOR (511). IN ADDITIONIT HASTHE VERY DESIRABLE AMG SPORT BODY PACKAGEANDEXTREMELY RARE FACTORY 2 PIECE AMG WHEELS MADE BY BBSAS WELL AS APANOROOF.ALTHOUGH THE CAR HAS 35K MILESI BELIEVE YOU WILL NOT FIND A CLEANER R129 ANYWHERE OTHER THAN PERHAPS THE MERCEDES BENZ MUSEUM IN STUTTGART, 'MNOT KIDDING. I AM AMERCEDES BENZ ENTHUSIAST AND THIS CARWAS GIVENA COMPLETE OPEN CHECKBOOK WHEN I BOUGHT IT A FEW YEARS AGO ADDRESSING EVERY ISSUE BOTH MECHANICALLY AND COSMETICALLY NO MATTER HOW BIG OR SMALL. IJUST EVEN JUST RECENTLY HADBOTH BUMPERS AND THE SIDE SKIRTS RE-SPRAYEDSIMPLY DUE TO THE MINOR PITTING THAT CAME WITH 35K MILES.WHILE DOING SOI ALSO REPLACED THE FOG LIGHTS, EADLIGHT LENSES, RILL AND WINDSHIELD. ABOUT A YEAR OR SO AGO I BOUGHT THE PANOROOF FOR IT. ALTHOUGH THE COLOR COMBO WAS CORRECT UNFORTUNATELY THE 600 IT CAME OFFWAS A CAR WITH OVER 100K MILES SO IT HAD SEEN THE SUN AND THE ELEMENTS. THEREFORE I OF COURSEREPLACED ALL THE ALUMINIUM TRIM PIECES, LL THE SEALS AND MOST OF THE INTERIOR TRIM PIECES SO IT WOULD BE ON PAR WITH THE QULITY OF THE REST OF THE CAR. I EVEN RETROFITTED THE FACTORY PHONE SYSTEM WITH THE MBMOTOROLA V60 BLUETOOTH CABLE / DONGLE SOYOU CAN HAVE ANDS FREE CALLING WITHA MODERN PHONE ANDTHE FACTORY BECKER CM1910 HEAD UNIT (WHICH I ALSO SOURCED A NEW FACE PLATE AND KNOB FOR). I COULD GO ON AND ON BUT BY NOW YOU PROBABLY GET THE POINT. IN SHORTAN OVERWHELMING MAJORITY OF THE USED CARS YOU WILL EVER SEE USUALLY LOOK MUCH BETTER IN PICTURES THAN THEY DO IN PERSON. THAT IS NOT THE CASE WITH THIS ONE, T IS THE OPPOSITE. ALTHOUGH IT OBVIOSULY DOES LOOK GREAT IN THE PICSIF YOU ARE SERIOUSLY INTERESTED IN THE CAR I WOULD HIGHLY ENCOURAGE YOU COME SEEIT AND LET ME PUT IT ONA LIFT SO YOU CAN LOOK AT IF FROM EVERY PERSPECTIVE. IT IS THEN THATYOU CAN REALLY GET AN APPRECIATION FOR THE INCREDIBLE CONDITION IT IS IN. IF IT DOES SELL THE BUYER FOR THIS CARWILLALMOST CERTAINLYBE ANOTHER MB ENTHUSIAST THATWANTS THE ABSOLUTE BEST 129 THAT THEY COULD EVER FIND AND IS WILLING TO PAY A PREMIUIM FOR IT. YOU COULD TAKE THIS CAR TO ANY MB EVENTOR SHOW AND I'M CERTAINNOONE WILL HAVE A NICER R129 (OR PROBABLY ANY OTHER CAR THEREFOR THAT MATTER). HOWEVERON THE OTHER HAND IF YOUR INTENTION WOULD BE TO DRIVE ITYOUALSO CAN'T GO WRONG WITH THIS CAR. IT NEEDS ABSOLUTELY NOTHING. I WENT THROUGH EVERYTHING, LL FLUIDS (ENGINE, RANS, EAR END, OOLANT, YDRUALIC, TC.),ALL FILTERS, LUGS. IT HAS NEW BRAKES, EW TIRES, TC. ETC. ALL THAT SAID I'M SURE I WILL BE ASKED WHY I AM I SELLING IT. THE ANSWER IS I'M NEARING THE COMPLETION OF A NUT AND BOLT RESTORATION ON ANOTHER BENZ AND I'M STARTING TO HAVE SECOND THOUGHTSABOUT HAVING TWO CARS THAT REMAIN COVERED UP IN A SHOP AND I DON'T DRIVE. THEREFORE I AM WILLING TO LET THE 129 GO IF I CAN GET OFF IT FOR A REASONBLE NUMBER (AND AT$35K IWILL STILL BE LOSING A LOT OF MONEY ON IT). I HAVE OVER$20K INRECEIPTS OVER THE LAST COUPLE YEARSFOR PARTS AND MISC. WORK(NOT INCLUDING THE RECENT PAINT WORK) ANDI HAVE LOST TRACK OF HOW MANY HUNDREDS OF HOURS OF MY OWN TIME I HAVE SPENT WORKING ON THE CAR. ANYWAYSPLEASE FEEL FREE TO CONTACT ME IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS AND AGAINIF POSSIBLE I WOULD HIGHLY ENCOURAGEYOU TO COME SEE THE CAR IF YOU ARE A SERIOUS BUYER. SPEAKING OF WHICHPLEASE DONT CONTACT ME IF YOU ARE A DEALER OR SOMEBODY WITH A LOWBALL OFFER. THIS ISBY NO MEANS A DISTRESSED SALE. ALSO PLEASE CONTACT ME IF YOU HAVE NO OR VERY LITTLEEBAYFEEDBACK. SAME STORY IF YOU HAVE SIGNIFICANT NEGATIVE FFEDBACK. I HAVE 100% POSITIVE FEEDBACK WITH 863 TRANSACTIONS AND ALTHOUGH MOST OF THOSE ARE FOR PURCHASES IT SHOULD GIVE YOU CONFIDENCE THAT YOU ARE DEALING WITH A REPUTABLE INDIVIDUAL. I KNOW I'M ASKING AFAIRLY STRONG NUMBER FOR THIS CAR BUT BETWEEN IT'S CONDITION AND EVERYTHING ELSE IT IS A RELATIVE BARGAIN TO THE RIGHT BUYER. LASTLY A $500 NON-REFUNDABLE DEPOSIT IS DUE VIA PAYPALWITHIN 24 HOURS OF PURCHASE AND THEBALANCE OF PAYMENT WITHIN 7 DAYS. I WILL ONLY ACCEPT WIRE TRANSFER (PRFERABLY) OR CASH.ALSO IF NOT LOCAL I'M HAPPY TO ASSIST WITH SHIPPING BUTTHE BUYER IS RESPONSIBLEFOR COORDINATING IT ALONG WITH ALL ASSOCIATED COSTS. MY SUGGESTION HOWEVER WOULD BE TO DRIVE IT HOME IF POSSIBLE AS ALTHOUGH I HAVE NOTPUT MANY MILES ON IT SINCE BUYING IT THE FEW ROAD TRIPS I HAVE TAKEN WERE A BLAST, HE M120 V12 IS JUST AWESOME. LASTLY SELLER RESERVES RIGHT TO CANCEL THIS LISTING AT ANY TIME AS THE CAR IS ALSO BEING ADVERTISED IN A NUMBER OF DIFFERENT PLACES.

THANKS
