OldBenz Merch https://oldbenz.creator-spring.com/ Patreon https://www.patreon.com/oldbenzclub R129 SL 320 https://www.nextclassics.nl/autos/mercedes-benz-sl320/ Designed in 1984, the R129 was based on the shortened floorpan of the Mercedes-Benz W124 and featured many innovative details for the time, for instance electronically controlled damping (Adaptive Damping System ADS, optional) and a hidden, automatically extending roll-over bar. The R107's somewhat dated rear suspension with semi-trailing arms gave way to a modern multi-link axle. The number of standard features was high, with electric action for the windows, mirrors, seats, and hydraulic convertible top. This car has the distinction of being the first passenger vehicle to have seat belts integrated into the seats as opposed to anchoring to the floor, B-pillar, and transmission tunnel. #r129 #sl320 #roadster #oldbenz source: Next Classics
