key moments & facts

Highly original condition. The car retains original body panels, factory spot welds, matching numbers, and an unspoilt interior with original trim, radio, and rare details.

Extensively maintained and recommissioned. Over £26,000 has been spent on restoration and maintenance (including suspension, fuel system, and servicing), making it both collectable and usable today.

Strong provenance and documented history. Originally delivered to the U.S., owned by film ranch founder J.W. Eaves, with documented history from the 1970s and full records of ownership and mileage.

Early 250SL models are rare and desirable. The early Mercedes-Benz 250SL combines the styling of the 230SL with mechanical upgrades, making it rarer and more sought-after than later versions.

It features important mechanical improvements. Compared to the 230SL, it benefits from a seven-bearing engine and rear disc brakes, improving performance and reliability.
