Default Mercedes SL500 'factory AMG spec'

Mercedes SL500 - 5.0 V8
FULL Mercedes main dealer service history. This means that the car still qualifies for full European Mobilo Mercedes breakdown for free!
80,000 miles with stamped book and all invoices (all done at Mercedes main dealer)
2002/52 plate but included in the sale is the private plate in the pics (I have the plate certificate etc)
Factory fitted full AMG bodykit
Presented in a Metallic Matt Grey 3M professional wrap. Metallic obsidian black underneath (full pics of wrap being done to show how wonderful the condition is underneath).
Keyless Go Entry/Exit & Start System
Brand new 20" staggerered deep dish alloy wheels. Not cheap and only covered 500 miles! Original 18" AMG alloys available if prefered
Mercedes Active Body Control Suspension with adjustable ride height & Sports Mode
Satellite Navigation - Sat Nav
Dual Zone Climate Control - Air Con
Telephone System
Electric Seats, Drivers & Passenger Memory Facility
Heated Seats
Electric Folding Door Mirrors
Front & Rear Park Distance Control
Remote Central Door Locking / Alarm System (2 keys)
Cruise Control/Speed Limiter
Automatic Bi Xenon Headlights
Rain Sensitive Wipers
Auto Dim/Dip Mirrors
Upgraded Bose Stereo System with Multiplay CD
Elecrically Heated & Adjustable Door Mirrors
Electric Hard Top
Multi-Function Steering Wheel
Electrically Adjustable Steering Column
On-Board Trip Computer, ABS, ESP, PAS, Headlamp Wash System
SL63 rear boot spoiler
Facelift front grill (original available)














The car is in beautiful condition with no dings or dents or imperfections. Owned for nearly 2 years it has never let me down. I only use in the dry/summer and have returned up to 32mpg before! I average around 23/24mpg on a journey. All of the expensive items that go wrong on these have been done, even the ABC pump has been replaced so no expensive issues to worry about. No rust whatsoever on the car and it wants for nothing. Has always been garaged by myself (and the mature previous owner). Shame to see it go but need something a little more practical. Any more questions or if any more pics are wanted, before the wrap etc then please message me.

After £11,250 ono.

I may part exchange with a E60 BMW 535d Sport (with under 100k miles) plus a bit of cash my way.

I do still have them yes (the staggered 18" 5 spokes), although the 2 rear tyres need replacing.

Thanks guys it certainly is a bit different to other SL's!! I love it to pieces but think its probably the best time to sell coming up to Spring/Summer. Taking a massive hit on it though !!

I've seen this round wickford before and thought I'd love to own that!

If only I had the funds for it right now!
