This is our 3rd Mercedes. All have been trouble free. We bought this SL from the orignal owner with 89,000 miles. She has gone 5,000 trouble free miles.The performace is surprising for an inline 6 cylnder. She is 10 years old and still receives admiring glances. She is a beauty!

1995 sl600 entire wiring is disintegrating the car has been in 4 different mecedes shops . The wiring harness is not avaible. Every time the car it touched or moved or driven something else wiring related goes wrong. It is sitting in a shop with check engine light on saying it is the mass air flow sensor , but replacing it did not help. Now the SRS light came on again. Last time that happened it went into limp mode and cost $5,000 to fix. Some throttle control which had to be removed sent out and hand rewired because even wiring inside the units were disintegrated. Stay away the reason a $125,000 car is $5,000 is because it will cost so much to own in maintenance and repairs. The only miles I get to drive this car are to and from the shop. Mercedes does not I repeat DOES NOT stand behind their cars or their mistakes. If you want to know the quality or lack there of , just get on the US gov. Recall list. Mercedes junk is recalled all the time on a very regular basis. I am on the list for Nisson, Chrysler , Ford , and Mercedes. Yes from time to time they all have recalls but mercedes is at least 10 times the others. Your money but much more valuable your time wasted. UPDATE Still in shop, still unusable, Don't buy Mercedes, they back their mistakes by thumbing their nose at you. They got your money, so screw you. Up date Still in shop, can't get parts, wires are shorting out everywhere, worst investment in my life.
