    Best place to sell your car

    Thanks don’t think you are wrong here. Was hoping I’d get some recommendations from dealers people have used. Mole Valley the nearest to me and can’t get them to answer phone, return calls or answer email so clearly not interested!

    Best place to sell your car

    Yeah I gave them a call and they were keen to push the auction option but that was with a quite low reserve. Am interested in where people find best to get a good price. Used Motorway before for mainstream cars and that works well but 15k for the SL seems a bit low.

    Best place to sell your car

    I need to sell my 2009 SL63. Seems a whole load of places to sell from auto trader to webuyanycar to auction sites. A Quick Look on AT and my specific car is anything from high teens to 40k. 40k is having a laugh with a 13k miles car but what do people find is best. Slightly specialist. Think...

    Mercedes A35 or A45 AMG

    I had an A45 from new and loved it. Stupid fast when you want it to be but really easy to drive around town. Only thing I found was quite noisy and bouncy at high motorway speeds which was tiring so not a car for long distances 70+ if you know what I mean. No problems other than turbo started...

    996 Turbo to an SL400

    If you want to scratch that itch as already said an SL63 is a bit of an animal when you want but cruises like any other SL when you want. Mine is for sale as well so there you go!

    SBC warning after battery failure

    Hoping someone can help here before I take to the garage. I have a 2009 SL63. All been fine in the 8yrs I’ve had it but last weekend it threw a paddy.

    AliExpress ABC Shock Absorbers

    Looks a good price though looks like you need to exchange so would need to see if my garage would take the 4 off and wait?

    How bad of an idea is it to buy an SL65 (R230) in 2023?

    How bad of an idea is it to buy an SL65 (R230) in 2023?

    I'm on a separate R230 forum. The engines are expensive to maintain particularly the coil packs. The R230 has expensive parts whatever model you get but the AMG ones are at the top. They seem to be in big demand and getting a premium. These cars don't respond well to not being driven or...
