1968 Mercedes Benz 250SL Buyer
The 1968 Mercedes-Benz 250SL was the final year of production for this model before the introduction of the 280SL.
With limited production numbers and continued refinements, the 1968 250SL is highly sought after by collectors. Owners often ask: should I consign it to an auction, try a private sale, or sell directly to classic Mercedes buyer Alex Manos?
Often considered a one year model, the majority of the Mercedes Benz 250SL models were built in 1967, however many were sold in, and titled as 1968 Mercedes Benz 250SL models. In fact, only two units of the 5,196 produced were actually manufactured in 1968. If you have a 1968 Mercedes 250SL you are considering selling, one of the biggest Seller’s Tips that the team at AlexManos.com can offer you is to determine what year your auto was actually manufactured in. Locating the chassis and engine numbers, as well as the VIN number, and checking them against Mercedes records can accomplish this. In general however, the 250SL is one of the more sought-after autos in the SL line, as they were a limited production and offered several advancements to the line. One of the main advancements was the addition of full disk brakes, as the original cars of the SL line were equipped with 2 disk brakes and 2 drum brakes. Other modern features that draw buyers are the power steering, 4-speed automatic transmission, power assisted brakes, air conditioning, and AM and FM radios.

“Our conversation was short and too the point. I sent Alex some true-to-life photos of my vehicle. He made an offer. I countered. He accepted, then sent in the sum to a bank account based on the impressions he’d taken from the photos sent. Within 24 hours the $ had transferred and the logistics coordination was in motion. Other than the postpartum stemming from the end of a 40-year relationship, the entire experience was seamless. Thank you Alex.”
