About Hagerty’s condition ratingsClose

Very good recent clearcoat paint and upholstery. Good chrome except the rear bumper which is thin. The engine compartment is clean and orderly but let down by a cam cover that has been wire brushed and looks tacky.

Market commentary

This is a decent, but not exceptional 190SL. It would be a mind-bending price except for the fact that RM sold a 190SL in the same color, also with both tops and in somewhat better condition, yesterday for $340,500. Back in the early to mid-Twenty-Teens 190SLs went through a quarter million dollar phase which had sensibly tapered off to low six-figures before starting to creep back up last year. These cars have 105 horsepower. They’re built on a sedan chassis with a rudimentary suspension. This 190SL is far from the best one in the world but its price is a record.
