Vehicle details

Notes and observations recorded by Hagerty staff.

Equipment

Black Rudge centerlock wheels, two tops, Pirelli P4000 blackwall tires, Becker Mexico AM FM. Silver painted intake. Restored like new with excellent paint, chrome, interior, chassis and engine. A serious 300SL that looks the part and is impeccably done everywhere. Original steel wheels included.

Market commentary

A stunning price for a 300SL Roadster, but a stunning car that is above reproach in every respect. The bidders bought the dream and paid fully for it. While this is a record 300SL Roadster price, its within a few thousand dollars of others similarly presented and sold recently and it wont be long before seven figures appear next to similar cars.
