From 1989 onwards, with their new SL (= Super Light) range, Mercedes-Benz offered a sensational sports car that was sporty but relaxing to drive and incorporated more electronics and electrical aids than any previous SL. It combined performance, safety, pleasure and comfort to a higher degree than any other car of its period could offer. This included the elegant exterior, styled by Bruno Sacco which united Italian flair with German reliability. A variety of engines was available to enthusiastic drivers. In the case of the 300 SL-24 coupe this was the lively 6-cylinder engine with a capacity of 2,960 cc and four-valve technology which delivered 231 bhp (170 kW) at 6,300 rpm and gave a top speed of 240 km/h.
