What a nice dilemma to have. Want to supplement my garage (E190 2.5D and E280) with a fast Mercedes - considering either the CL55 or the SL55.
So, my criteria.
- Not too fussed if it is a convertible or has a sun roof.
- Want reliability.
- Nice if car / parts were not too expensive...
- Will be doing about 10k a year (mostly motorways).
- Could consider CL500 or lesser SL model, but do love the AMG models...
- Want to buy within next 3-6 months
Any comments as to reliability and ownership costs would be greatly appreciated. Obviously, the CL are cheaper but acquisition cost not the main driver for choosing the car.
Love to hear people's experiences and recommendation. Have test driving both (albeit being the CL500/SL500) and love them both...
Thanks
