While we may all still dream of owning a 300 SL Roadster or a "Pagoda", the reality is that those SLs have become out of reach. Also, if you're after Mercedes-Benz roadster thrills but with modern-day conveniences, then the R129 ticks all the boxes. This is a car that you could comfortably daily.

Highly advanced for its time, with loads of tech borrowed from big-brother, the W140 S-Class, the R129 SL had a novel pop-up roll-bar that deployed automatically in the event of a roll-over accident. 

 

This particular silver example features classy grey leather upholstery and wood trim inside and also features a detachable colour-matched hardtop. It has just over 200 000km on the clock and a full-service history - the latter vital if you're buying as an investment.
