It is with much regret that I am selling my SL55 AMG

Next service is due in 8000 miles. Last service was carried out at a specialist garage. On top of the service all 16 spark plugs were changed (as per schedule) along with new belts and a brand new genuine Mercedes consumer battery (£180). I was advised that the dreaded ABC valve block was on its way out (known fault with any SL) so had this replaced with a genuine Mercedes item costing me over £2000 in total! I have all receipts for this. It was relaced about a year ago and to date I have had zero other issues with the car.

It has been an absolute joy to own and easily the fastest and most fun car i've owned. Everything works as it should, there are no electrical niggles, known faults or knocks. The bodywork is in lovely condition with zero parking dings / dents etc. The is no rust on the rear arches which, if you have viewed some already will know this is common on these. Few stone chips on the front as expected but barely noticeable (being honest). It has always been my 2nd / 3rd car and only used on dry days.

I'm asking £14,495 for the car which seems to sit in well with the rest of the market bearing in mind the time of year and condition.

 

That is lush!
