Any ideas on cause of this please:
I took my girlfriend's late grandad's SL for a run today, it hadn't been started since late November (see this thread.) The battery was flat, despite being left garaged and on a trickle charger. One quick swap with the one from her grandma's C240, and after...
I need to get valuations for a few vehicles owned by my girlfriend's grandfather who sadly passed away last month. Unfortunately, they're too old for any of the online valuation guides, and one of them is erm, really old.
Firstly, his 300SL. I have the vin for this if anyone can decode it...

by the sound of it it's a genuine car, they must be pretty rare! Don't know howmuch they are worth though, seems a tad expensive to me. If it were a 500SL then maybe:devil:
It's very red too, not sure about the grill in that colour but the rest...
HI I have a 1989 300sl with a noisy fuel pump can hear it constantly from inside the car any ideas does it need replacing or is there a fix apart from turning up the radio

mmm not sure, think I prefer standard car, but would like to see it in the metal http://www.ccbenz.co.uk/30621/113658.html
The top picture looks odd, surely something wrong with the camera settings ???
Can anyone tell me where to use the special spanner to manually open the roof bow compartment? The book says where the arrow is but I cant see anything there to use it on???
Its a 1990 300SL.
cheers

Have checked bulbs - OK
Checked...

Hi Guys,
For some time I've been tempted by a W107 SL, and have it in mind to look for a late 280 or 300, 1985 - 89. Having pored over road tests and even bought the Brooklands Books' Ultimate Portfolio, there are no tests of either car, only the V8s.
Can anyone give me some real-world...
Hi
