SUMMARY
Civilised supercar performance sprinkled with some AMG 'magic dust' at a very sensible guide.
DESCRIPTION
- A very smart example of the blisteringly fast SL55 in Brilliant Silver with Anthracite leather
- At launch, AMG's 493bhp, 5.4-litre supercharged V8 propelled the car to 62mph in 4.2 seconds
- This fabulous Mercedes has covered just 29,063 miles with our vendor and five former keepers
- The theatrical panoramic folding roof never fails to impress. Multi-spoke AMG alloys
- Keyless entry, keyless start, Bose sound system, heated and cooled ventilated massage seats
- Full Mercedes Benz service history, all new tyres, both batteries replaced, new supercharger coolant pump and the ABC suspension has been checked and re-calibrated. Fresh MOT prior to the sale
- SL55s reached the bottom of the depreciation curve a few years ago and values are on the move, undoubtedly an appreciating modern classic
