In 1989, the SL of the R 129 series replaced its predecessor, the R 107, which had been built for almost 20 years. As was to be expected, the Swabians continued the decades-long tradition with the new model.

Mercedes-Benz SL (R129): Alle Modelle (1989-2001) - Praxisratgeber Klassikerkauf

The fifth SL generation, the R 129 series, introduced in 1989, was the successor to a real long-seller. The predecessor, the R/C 107, had been built for a sensational 18 years. Not an easy legacy - and Mercedes-Benz has done a lot differently with the new model.
Head stylist Bruno Sacco designed a full-fledged roadster, free of chrome in keeping with the spirit of the times, with a comparatively solid appearance and a sporty yet timelessly elegant appearance. As is usual with the company's top series, the R 129 was a technology carrier that set the standard, especially in terms of safety. It was the first car in the world to have a roll bar that shot up in 0.3 seconds if the car was about to roll over.
A wide range of engines, from silky smooth inline six-cylinder to beefy six-liter V12, meets every requirement, and the large range of colors and equipment still ensures a wide selection today.

This is the book for buying a Mercedes R 129. This handy guide is your best companion on the way to the big star. Here are everything you need to know about the elegant roadster in a compact and clear format.
You will receive valuable tips on the different versions, models and engines. You will learn about the weak points and what work you might have to do. This makes it easier to negotiate so that you get the right car at a fair price. Because one thing is certain: well-preserved 129s have long since passed their price low!
