THE MERCEDES-BENZ 190 SL

Following the success of the 300 SL Coupe and Roadster, Mercedes-Benz's United States importer, Max Hoffman, suggested that a similarly styled, less costly alternative might be successful. The resulting 190 SL proved popular with the public at the 1954 New York International Auto Show, and it remained in strong demand throughout its nine-year production run. The 190 SL was well-suited for touring, as it featured copious luggage space, despite having a convertible top. The model has continued to impress discerning collectors, and masterfully restored examples such as the one offered here are fleeting in their public availability.


THIS 190 SL

The car offered here is a strikingly beautiful example of the spirited convertible. Beautifully finished in its original colors of black over a beige 'Creme' leather interior, during 2013-14 it was restored to concours standards by one of the premier Mercedes-Benz specialty shops in the country. No expense was spared to ensure that this 190 SL achieved a level of excellence rarely seen on these cars. The restorers disassembled it to a bare tub to ensure that every inch of the car was as exquisite as the next. Mechanical components were rebuilt using Mercedes-Benz NOS parts wherever possible and detailed to a high standard. The factory-correct Black paint is gorgeous, as is the interior, which fully restored in the correct hides in the proper shade of tan leather. Tan square weave carpeting and floor liners complete the impeccably presented and luxurious cockpit.

This car is extremely well equipped with interesting and desirable options including a Blaupunkt radio and whitewall tires. Confirmed per the original invoice the car not only has its original color scheme but retains its matching number engine and drive train as well.

The car comes with pictures taken during its restoration, a lot of recent invoices; original dealer map from 1958; service book + supplement; parts catalog and more;...

Treasured by many enthusiasts for its good looks, usability, and reliability, the 190 SL has been a highly sought-after collector car for years, with instantly familiar styling and a driving experience pleasurable for extended touring. This example, beautifully restored by marque experts, has been well-kept in the present collection, and has much to recommend it to the connoisseur of these charming, eternally popular Mercedes-Benzes. Beautifully restored and detailed, it is suitable for touring, rallies, or for taking part in regional concours events.

The car currently has Belgian registration and is sold on behalf of our client.
