Another low milage SL600 sold for over 30K on BAT. That makes two in the last 2 months. Hang on to them if you have one.

@sgt1078 Interesting, thanks for the heads up. How do the recent sales statistics compare with last year, or the year before?

While I admit to following all R129 auctions on BAT, I am biased to the 600s between 98-01. Of course there are a number of factors as to the final bid price on any R129, it seems the low mileage SL600s with the hydraulics redone, most often bring mid to high 20"s with the last two surpassing 30's.
More opportunities to get a better price on BAT as opposed to the major auction houses, which have limited attendance.
I'm sure there will be some who disagree with me , as to the price drivers, but all in all, I think the price year over year has increase by 10-20%, again with the previous mentioned factors.

I wonder how well driver examples are holding their value in comparison. It's unrealistic to have to keep them parked in order to get any appreciation.
