love sl fan community, since the appearance of the r129 was and is this my dream car. especially the silhouette fascinates me. after more than 18 years and I can now realize this dream as “hobby” or third car. I would like to buy a well-kept r129 (–> as far as possible sl 500/5 gang autom., unbasted) to drive it exclusively at the end of the week (only early year/summer). I guess I will drive for a limited time max. 3 to 5 tkm per year with this car. This will be a rather expensive hobby for me, since I want to keep and maintain the car for several years. I have been intensely observing the r129 market for more than six months. however, I have no time pressure. my question: is it worth buying such a convertible before the “winter break” or in winter, or will there still be noticeable price movements down until the next early year? especially for the still quite expensive r129 series from bj. 1996 (mopf2). especially since I don’t plan di iten dare to drive now in winter, and through the new r230 model care in the next spring many r230/mopf1 used will come on the market. most likely then some r129 owners will exchange their fun car for a “payable” used r230, and there will be again some good (and affordable for me) r129 on the market. or do I see this wrong? thank you in advance for serious tips! greetings from stuttgart summer57
