Mercedes-Benz SL-Class

Iconic is a much-overused word these days, but in the case of the Mercedes-Benz SL roadster, it’s justified.

Mercedes-Benz SL-Class SL 55 2004

5 star review

Best car I ever owned! Pure power and a great sound! Had some warranty issues but all got fixed by Mercedes no problem. So make sure you get a good warranty! Nothing to fault with this car! It was PERFECT!

Mercedes-Benz SL-Class SL65 2006

1 star review

I have had an SL65 for three years now and have had little problems every couple of months. Now in the last year, this baby has been at dealer for two months, twice for engine and transmission problems. I have CPO mb warranty but it ends December 2011. I pity the poor sucker that buys this cash hungry monster of a car. It is by far the best hot rod on the road and outperforms everything in it’s way. I love the car but Mercedez-Benz need to build a car that won’t breakdown so often. Good luck if you own this car without CPO, you’ll need lots of money ready for repairs.

Mercedes-Benz SL-Class 55 AMG 2007

5 star review

Best feature of this car is the steel folding roof. Everything about it is great, the ride either with the roof raised or not is luxury.
