Mercedes-Benz 190 SL “Mille Miglia” – 1956

The Mercedes-Benz 190 SL is one of the most elegant and recognisable sports cars of the 1950s. This 1956 example distinguishes itself not only through its refined execution, but also by its proven status as a registered entry in the Registro 1000 Miglia. The car has already participated in the legendary Mille Miglia and is therefore officially eligible for future editions – a unique asset that makes it perfectly suited for prestigious international events.

The car was fully restored and rebuilt in Germany, with great attention to detail and preservation of its original specifications. It is a “matching numbers” example, confirmed by the original Lieferschein-Datakart. As an early-series car, this 190 SL is also fitted with the desirable 300 SL seats, further enhancing its exclusivity.

The original colour scheme, Perlgrau combined with a stylish interior, highlights the timeless elegance of this model. Both technically and cosmetically, the car is in excellent condition, ready to be enjoyed with confidence at high-level events.

The comprehensive history and maintenance file provides detailed insight into the restoration and the carefully documented past of the car. This documentation confirms not only the quality of the example, but also the diligence with which it has been maintained over the years.

A Mercedes-Benz 190 SL of outstanding quality, already with Mille Miglia history, and uniquely eligible for renewed participation in this world-renowned event.
