EXTERIOR
This is approaching 14 year old, it would be no surprise that it has the odd mark and stone chips, consumerate with age.[/FONT]
[FONT="]That said, this car is in excellent shape.[/FONT]
[FONT="]The folding roof had not been used by the previous owner for many years, choosing to leave the hard top on. As a result, the rear screens were cracked. I had these replaced in August 2010 by a recommended installer from the SL shop (Google them).[/FONT]
[FONT="]The paint was mottled on the rear, having been stood for 2 years. Both rear wings and cross beam have been re-sprayed in March 2013.[/FONT]
[FONT="]
INTERIOR.[/FONT]
[FONT="]Again, taking into account age, the interior is in excellent condition.[/FONT]
[FONT="]All interior instrumentation, switch gear and ventilation operate correctly. [/FONT]
[FONT="]The drivers’ seat swab has been refurbished this year. The leather is nourished every 2 months.[/FONT]
[FONT="]All the Walnut wood/inlays are very good. I will polish these prior to changing hands to the new owner.[/FONT]
[FONT="]ENGINE & TRANSMISSION[/FONT][FONT="]
V6 engine is solid and performs as it should. It is smooth and responsive.[/FONT]
[FONT="]The 5-speed automatic transmission is very smooth and has excellent kick down.[/FONT]
