This rare 2004 R230 Mercedes-Benz SL65 AMG is an astonishing car. Its handb-built 6.0-litre biturbo V12 engine produces 612bhp and an incredible 1000Nm of torque – and sounds just wonderful! At the time of its launch, it was the world’s most powerful open-top car and cost around £143,000.

This example is finished in silver metallic with 19-inch AMG alloy wheels and a full black leather interior. As well as offering stellar performance, this Mercedes also oozes luxury, with a retractable roof, fully electric memory seats with massage function, cruise control, climate control, multifunction steering wheel, plus automatic wipers and headlamps.

Active Body Control (ABC) with switchable Sports mode, composite brakes and a limited-slip differential are just some of the high-tech features.

The Mercedes-Benz has covered 48,800 miles, has a well-documented main dealer history, and is in great condition.

If you are unable to get to us, please get in touch as we offer a remote buying service. We can first make a personalised video or organise a conference call to show you around the car, covering all aspects you want to see. If you like the car, you pay for it and we shall deliver it to you free of charge (within 100 miles of our Chichester base, further distances charged at cost). We are based on the south coast of England, nestled between the South Downs and Chichester Harbour, an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. It’s a lovely area to visit and you are still very welcome to come and view our stock or just have a chat about cars!
