Current customer rating: (477 votes ) based onWith much regret and due to a change in personal circumstances i have decided to sell my 500 SL.
Goes without saying that this is the ultimate SL to have - nothing beats the V8 purr and burble on kick down. Absolute future classic appreciating in price year by year!

Accident repaired in 2007 due to value of repair. (typical classic car insurance issue. car is straight nohting structural. front end damage but original slam panel inner wings etc in place!)
BIG SERVICE and INSPECTION FROM THE SL SHOP (£1. 00 BILL. August 2013)
Very reliable. does not overheat or fail to start - smooth engine just serviced by the SL Shop.
Service History. not full main dealer but many bills and invoices to go with. supposidly FULL MERCEDES Upto 120k miles (i will chase down the merc dealers).
This particular car has had much money spent and invested well in its time as proven and confirmed by Bruce Greetham from the SL SHOP.
Oerall very good condition. it is not a show winner but it is by no means in need of a full body resto!
Resprayed in 2007 in the original colour. the body is in good order minor marks and very minimal rust but there are 1 or 2 bubbles and minor scab on 1 arch!
The floor pan and other usual rust spots have been dealt with to a very good standard and the car has been wax oiled underneath. SL Shop was happy with the level of the work carried out!
Wind screen has been replaced and the 'windscreen frame' has been rubbed down and treated so no future issues of rust there either!
BULKHEAD - Common problem for these cars to rot here. This car is PERFECT - very dry no need to worry here. would recommend wax oiling but not essential.
Gear Box - Auto box is very smooth. no harsh gear changes up or down. no whining either.
Brakes - Brakes are good all round. recently rubbed down at the service and inspected - no problems there.
Steering - Power steering works well. steering box adjusted by SL Shop and now drives sharp as designed with very limited play!
Suspension. recent front shocks. bushes are in good condition also.
Engine mounts have been replaced.
Electrical - ALL ELECTRICAL items are fully working! (EW. EM. Ariel. Tape Player. Central locking)
Added note: boot spring needs to be replaced. part included in final sale price. (does not hold it self open at the moment. common problem)
Cruise Control - WorkingRecent exhaust replacement.
Overall very good car. for sale only due to an imminent change in job. requires absolutely zero money spent on it as it. Simply enjoy the car and drive. starts first time everytime!
Viewing is essential and welcome. test drive no issue for serious buyers. Car can be viewed in Luton very close to Junc 10 M1 Luton Airport.
