Ah, Xenon lights. An essential in 1990

Plus "This car looks awesome , Sounds awesome , and just needs a good valet and a good old polish to bring back to life." Its from a dealer, surely a £50 valet isn't beyond them?

Sounds like there is a catch there somewhere...

Don't worry - it "looks the bizzo" apparently !

Ditto a cheap refurb on the wheels.

Funny combination - kph speedo and RHD. And no indicator repeaters on the front wings. Wonder where it was imported from?

It's wearing 1999 facelift rear light clusters too.

Says Far East so could be Brunei, Macau, Indonesia, Malaysia, Thailand, Singapore or Hong Kong

To be fair to the seller, he's been pretty straight-up about the car and it's condition. At least the wheels look genuine (although obviously not original/period R129) - unlike many of the SLs out there with replicas on.

£4995 asking price isn't too ambitious price-wise, I've seen worse examples for more money.

Clearly not a fresh import what with the personalised registration and road tax etc, perhaps a traded-in/part-ex that's being sold on 'as is', WYSIWYG etc

The soft top mechanism is knackered..........
