2002 Mercedes SL500 Silver Arrow
2002 SL500 Silver Arrow

Picking up a 2002 Silver Arrow this Thursday with high 40K miles...2 owner with 2nd owner having owned the car since 16K miles , garage kept, extended warranty, both tops, wheels in great condition (most have scraped rims and dented rims from low profile tires coming in contact with curbs), car cover, good to excellent interior, excellent paint, excellent soft top, etc.

I've looked at probably 10 of these models and traveled to see 4 cars at as much as 1000 miles from my home. I'm getting this one for $19K. There's a 7.5K miles, show room condition Silver Arrow in Richmond, VA for almost $35K, 4 collector owners (if someone wants pristine).

--------------------------------------------------------------------
Question:
Does anyone know where I can get a genuine repair/service manual for the Silver Arrow!
------------------------------------------------------------------

I'll update with pics when I get it home!

You are looking for a MB "STAR Service Manual Library for the Model 129, p/n P-2700-129-07" and they are no longer available from MB and they will not be making any more. Be careful what you see on eBay. There are many sellers that sound like they have the right thing. The closest you can get is an older version 04. buyer Beware!
