The Ultimate V8 Roadster Experience: 2013 Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG Roadster at Carhuna Auction
Marking a significant point in Mercedes-AMG's history as the first vehicle designed from the ground up by the performance brand.
Introduced in 2009, the Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG Roadster marks a significant point in Mercedes-AMG's history as the first vehicle designed from the ground up by the performance brand. This model builds on the engineering and design philosophies of its predecessors but introduced its modern features and cutting edge tech. The heart of the SLS, a M159 6.2-litre V8 engine, was tuned to deliver 563 horsepower, pairing this considerable power with a lighter aluminium structure to enhance its agility and speed.
Launched in 2011, the Roadster variant maintained the coupe's dynamic performance while adding the luxury of open-top driving. It managed to keep weight gain minimal, ensuring the vehicle's performance characteristics remained nearly unchanged from the hardtop model. This approach preserved the high-speed capabilities and precise handling that the SLS AMG was known for.
Currently open for bids with the auction closing on May 8th, this 2013 SLS AMG Roadster shows a low mileage of 9,300 miles and features a sleek Obsidian Black exterior with a Designo Red Exclusive Leather interior. The Roadster version includes structural reinforcements that compensate for the lack of a fixed roof, maintaining the vehicle’s integrity and performance.
The car is equipped with 19”/20” AMG forged wheels, red brake callipers, and a high-quality Bang & Olufsen BeoSound audio system, enhancing both its functionality and entertainment features. Comfort is prioritised with the must-have AIRSCARF heating system and adjustable memory seats, ensuring a pleasant driving experience regardless of the weather.
Previously owned by four individuals, this Roadster comes with two key fobs and has been maintained to ensure its condition and performance are optimal. Please note, the personalised plate 'PVA5' is not included in the sale, and the vehicle will revert to its original registration for the next owner.
The auction for this distinguished Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG Roadster is live on Carhuna and will conclude on May 8th. This auction presents a rare opportunity to acquire a well-maintained example of a modern classic known for its performance and distinctive design. Get bidding and you could be enjoying the 6.2-litre V8 rumble all summer.
