Like all SLs, this car is beautifully appointed and finished to a high standard and specification. Two-tone grey leather swathes the seats, door cards, transmission tunnel and dashboard. The rear anti roll bar functions correctly and there is the factory wind deflector.
With complementary grey carpets and Mercedes over-mats in the cabin, which are all in fine condition, it makes for a comfortable, cosseting and luxurious place to spend time. With all the toys and gadgets this SL has you’ll not want for anything, regardless of how long the journey is.
At the back there is a good size boot space, even with the retractable hardtop stowed. It’s in very good condition, with undamaged carpeting. Under the floor panel there is a spacesaver spare wheel.
The Silver paintwork is excellent and any tiny stone chips have been touched in and you would be hard pushed to even find them.
* Recently refurbished AMG alloys. These alloys which were a factory extra are the genuine AMG 18 inch alloys as fitted standard to an SL55. We have put on new tyres all round as the side walls had started to crack.
 

The abc suspension system has been checked and re checked and is functioning exactly as it should.
That 5-litre V8 is an incredible engine, driving the rear wheels and offering a mighty 302bhp / 460Nm. It gives the SL500 fantastic performance and effortless overtaking ability, making it a perfect long-distance grand tourer.
