Price on request --- A beautiful example of a 1959 Mercedes 190SL 'R'. This 190 has been styled and modified to resemble a 190SLR—a racing-oriented variant inspired by the 300SLR.

Exterior:

Finished in light silver-gray with blue racing stripes and custom hood art. Features include racing roll hoop, yellow rally fog lamps, bullet mirrors, and number roundels. Stripped-down for vintage racing with no bumpers, lightweight body mods, and period-correct wheels. A head-turning, track-ready classic with timeless Mercedes style.

Interior:

It features striking red leather upholstery throughout, including the low-back bucket seats, door panels, and transmission tunnel. The original-style dashboard is finished in silver with polished accents and a white steering wheel, complemented by period-correct gauges and toggle switches. A large central tachometer, additional rally clocks, and dash-mounted number "05" add to its vintage racing character. The minimalist setup, grey carpet, and exposed rivets reinforce the car's stripped-down, competition-focused personality while preserving unmistakable 1950s elegance.

Mechanics:

Mechanically, the Mercedes-Benz 190SL is known for its robust and reliable, original 1.9L inline-4 (M121),, and this example has been upgraded for spirited driving. The engine bay shows dual side-draft weber carburetors with performance air filters which improve throttle response and power over the original single-carb setup.
