Why buy an Approved Used Mercedes-Benz SL?

Red Mercedes-AMG SL Exterior Side Static

Epitomising everything that is great about Mercedes-Benz, the SL (otherwise known as the SL-Class) is a two-seat convertible that oozes luxury, class, refinement and performance. Having been a staple of the line-up since the 1950s, the latest models feature a variety of cutting-edge technologies to ensure they are well up-to-date with modern requirements.

Mercedes-Benz went to great lengths to make sure the SL drove as good as it looked, and there are a number of options that do exactly that. Pre-2020 examples include a V6 SL 400 and a V8 SL 500, each offering 362bhp and 449bhp respectively. Later models are available from the Mercedes-AMG range exclusively, featuring similar entry-level performance levels, as well as higher powered variants such as the SL 63 4MATIC+.

Inside, the SL is the ultimate in sophistication, offering a variety of high-quality materials to really enhance you driving experience. From superb soundproofing that blocks out unwanted road noise, to the optional 'Magic Roof' that provides an intelligent panoramic roof, it truly is a vehicle to behold.

As to be expected with a two-seat convertible, it is not the most practical vehicle, but it is plenty big enough for weekend getaways and daily use. Even when the roof is down there is over 300 litres of boot space, which is more than the A-Class Hatchback.

Are Mercedes-Benz SL models expensive to maintain?

As a premium convertible, the SL will be more expensive to maintain than your average vehicle, but maintenance costs are not unreasonable for a car of this nature. Specialist servicing and maintenance work can be carried out at your nearest Stratstone Mercedes-Benz retailer.

Which is the best Mercedes-Benz SL model to buy?

Each and every Mercedes-Benz SL is an appealing option in its own right, but the most sought after variant is likely the SL63 AMG thanks to its unrivalled performance levels. Earlier variants, such as the SL 400 also make for a great choice, offering a slightly friendlier balance between luxury and affordability.

What is the difference between the SL55 and SL63?

The main difference between the SL55 and the SL63 is their general approach to the driving experience. SL55 variants are more focused on luxury, featuring features such as AMG Ride Control suspension as well as impressive performance figures. SL63 variants on the other hand are a proper performance car, blessed with a 4.0-litre V8 that produces around 580bhp, as well as a host of advanced, luxury features.

Are there any common problems with the SL?

As with any used car, there are a few issues to keep an eye out for when viewing potential suitors. Common problems reported by owners include rear suspension mounts, passenger door lock, and passenger air bag faults. All of our used Mercedes-Benz models have undergone an extensive inspection process before being listed for sale, with any known issues being addressed as soon as possible.
