Hi, Am looking to replace tyres on my 2016 SL63 - they have Continental Sport Contact 6 on at the moment. Has anyone tried Michelin Pilot Sports? Also, would you stick with only an MO tyre or is this not essential. thanks DB1

Hi, Am thinking of a CL500 or possibly an W221 S-class. I know its a bit unusual but I need to transport some e-bikes. Is it possible to fit a towbar to either of those just for the e-bikes not for any trailers etc. Any advice would be helpful. Thanks DB1

Just a shout out to Carlo at SS Motors. I have an SL55 and have used them for a long time for various things and services etc. Today I was checking the tyre pressure and wanted to open the fuel filler - would not budge. Carlo had recently sorted the pneumatic pump, but I didn't think that was...

Hi, One of my other cars has a slight chip on the paint on one alloy wheel. I don’t really want to do a major refurb on it and was wondering what success anyone has had with an alloy Smart Repair. If there is anyone recommeded in the Surrey area that would be good. THanks DB1

Hi, I have an SL55 which I have had for 18 years. 80k miles. It is looking a bit tired now and I would ideally like to refresh it. Is there anywhere around Guildford in Surrey that is recommended to do this. Ideally a company which understands a bit about the SL rather than a generic one would...

Hi, What is the recommended product for cleaning the black AMG wheels from brake dust? I have read that some of the products are very acidic and can damage the wheels. Any recommendations welcomed.. Thanks DB1

Hi All, Just thought I would post some of my findings as it may be helpful to any other SL owners. I recently got an 2016 SL63 having had a 2002 SL55 before. My SL55 which I have owned for many years had no rattles once I had diagnosed the early creaks as needing some rubber lubricant. The ride...

Hi, I have just taken delivery of a 2016 SL63 AMG, Facelift, Silver, Nightpack, Drivers Pack and Carbon Interior. Keen to find other SL63 owners to share experiences. One of the first is compared to my older SL55 the steering is very different. Needs a bit of getting used to. Reading some info...

Hi, I am looking at a 2016 SL63 2016 model. Are there any known issues with this model? Also are there any differences between a 2016 model (Facelift) and the 2019 models? Any advice welcomed. Many thanks DB1

Hi, I am considering an SL63 which has the satin black centre lock wheels. There are a few scuffs on the near side wheels. Can these be refurbed? They have the AMG logo on the rim which might make it more difficult. Are the regular tyre companies able to torque the wheels correctly or would...

Hi, Due to pothole damage I need to replace a rear wheel on my original SL55AMG. I have tried MB - they don't do them anymore. Have tried eBay, but the ones available are either in a whole set or not in great condition. I am not comfortable refurbishing it and would rather find a new or nearly...

Hi, Been thinking about a nice GT upgrade for a while. Does anyone know this car at MB Waltham Cross? Seems a nice spec. Are there any things to worry about with this model? Many thanks DB1

Hi, I have an SL55 and I noticed that there are a few areas of what looks like surface rust on the body inside the engine compartment. Also one of the brackets holding a tank has rusted. This could be replace I think. Also the top covers seem to have some surface corrosion and don't look as...

Hi, I see lots of C63s around these days and they look great in my opinion. In addition there seem to be a lot doing track days and the owners seem impressed with them. I have a few questions? 1. Is the Edition 125 worth it? I have seen mixed opinions. 2. How does the PP edition drive - I...

Hi, A few days ago when I got out of the car something on my jacket must have got caught in the door vent cover on the drivers door pillar and as I stepped out it pulled it right out of the housing. Unfortunately the vent cover is split in two and the screw that holds it in place in the door...

As a longstanding MB customer with 2 MBs (S500 and SL55) I am very tempted by the new M5. The road tests that have been done so far seem positive. What is the general opinion, why would you buy an E63 over an M5 today? If you look at the comparisons: 1. Engine 2. Gearbox 3...
