2008 Mercedes-Benz SLR McLaren rwd

Developed through the landmark partnership between Mercedes-Benz and McLaren, the SLR was conceived as a modern-day super GT, blending Formula One-derived engineering with outstanding long-distance usability. Built around a carbon-fibre monocoque chassis and powered by a hand-assembled AMG-built 5.4-litre supercharged V8 producing 641 bhp, it delivers remarkable performance, effortless cruising capability, and unmistakable presence.

Manufactured at the McLaren Technology Centre in Woking, Surrey, this Mercedes-Benz SLR McLaren was originally delivered to the United States, before later being entrusted in 2009 to an authorised McLaren dealer and fitted with the full factory 722S exterior conversion, celebrating the SLR 722S Edition. It was subsequently acquired by a collector in Germany, where it was first registered in January 2010.

Finished in Pure Black over a Black/Anthracite leather interior with the carbon-fibre interior package, this example presents in an exceptionally elegant and rare specification.

Having covered just 12,411 miles from new, this SLR is accompanied by a comprehensive Mercedes-Benz service history and remains in outstanding condition throughout. Combining low mileage, desirable 722S upgrades, international provenance, and one of the most significant engineering collaborations of the modern era, it represents an exceptional opportunity to acquire a highly collectible example of the iconic SLR McLaren.

This is an exceptionally rare collector’s motor car, distinguished by its factory 722S upgrade.

First registered in the United States, this SLR is eligible for re-importation to its original market. With values for rare and collectible supercars continuing to outperform those seen in Europe, the car presents an attractive opportunity for U. S. collectors, where examples of this specification may command substantially higher values.
