SUMMARY
Mercedes ballistic SL55 AMG returned to full health on Wheeler Dealers.
DESCRIPTION
- Classically presented R230 in Brilliant Silver with a grey leather interior
- At launch, AMG's 493bhp, 5.4-litre supercharged V8 propelled the car to 62mph in 4.2 seconds
- This is a well-known car having featured in an episode of Wheeler Dealers (aired 02/04/2022)
- As can be seen, a number of the usual mechanical issues that are common on the SL500 and SL55 were present, and Mike and Elvis worked their way through all of them. Too many details to list here, but the car did benefit from a new set of wheels and tyres and an upgrade kit bought from the US for almost £1,000, promised to up the output by another 60bhp
- Extensive history file with the original Book Pack, Service Book (8 stamps), invoices and the current MOT valid until March 2023 with no advisories
- Civilised supercar performance sprinkled with some AMG magic dust at a sensible guide
