Sl 500 with panoramic hard top

I've owned my 99' SL 500 sport model w/ panoramic hard top for over 16 years.I purchased it with 88k on it and now have 215k on it. Its been a exceptionally good vehicle with relatively low problems. Burns quart of oil about every 5k and has one small oil leak at the rear pinion seal. Strong as a bull still! Some parts are difficult to get at this point. Mercedes Benz stopped producing some replacement parts for the vehicle. As will happens with vehicles after 20 years. Some plastic pieces have failed, What vehicle doesn't experience this. Overall the vehicle still performs very well and turns heads .I've always ran Michelin sport tires to give it exceptionally good road grip.99' up to 02' 129 chassis vehicles were exceptionally dependable vehicles!
