The 190 SL in this elegant color scheme of black (DB040) and grey leather is truly an impressive vehicle! The complete restoration by us at SL-Classics, in which no expense was spared, speaks for the quality and value of this model. With the optional hardtop and matching gray leather luggage, it is not only stylish but also practical.
Of particular note is that the original engine has been rebuilt to factory specification, guaranteeing the vehicle's performance and reliability. The 190 SL has seen a remarkable increase in value in recent years, but remains an affordable option compared to other models in the Mercedes-Benz family.
The Mercedes-Benz 190 SL, which was produced from October 1955 to March 1963, is considered very successful despite initial sales targets that were not quite achieved.
A total of 25,881 vehicles were produced, peaking in 1956 with 4,032 units sold. The 190 SL was replaced in 1963 by the 230 SL, also known as the Pagoda.

This vehicle has undergone a comprehensive “frame off” restoration by SL-Classics to the highest quality standards. It was painted in the color combination black on the outside and light grey leather on the inside. The interior has been upgraded with high quality leather to give a more luxurious feel. The restoration has returned the vehicle to its original condition, but with modern materials and technology to ensure better quality.
The 190 SL is matching numbers and the Datacard can be provided on request. Since the restoration, the car has only been driven about 1,200 km = 750 Miles
The car comes with German papers, a new TÜV certificate, an H certificate, an owner's manual, a service manual and the well-known German “Classic Data certificate” with the grade “1 / Concours Level Condition”.
