Hi guys,
I've been offered a swap for a silver 2005 SLK55 AMG, thing is the car is a 05 reg and has covered nearly 60K and needs a B service soon.
My car needs nothing at all and it is in perfect condition, everything the car needs gets, all the B service has been carried 2.5K early etc plus it's on a dec 56 so it's nearly 2yrs younger with 44K miles.
I've previously had a 56 reg SLK55 PP for a short amount of time and that was full of hassle, roof motor went twice, oil cooler had some sort of issue etc.. but I do miss it out of all the cars i've had!
Also one of my main concerns is the 7G box I've not experienced issues with it when I had my slk but I've read on forums that it isn't that reliable and I know guys who had some problems etc..
I know both these cars have more or less the same market value around 18-20K
Just want to know what you guys would do etc..?
Thanks for any help
