Potential new owner of a 2010 SL550
Hello folks,
As the title says, I am getting closer and closer to buying a 2010 SL550. Initially, I was having a hard time deciding between a 2012 C63 coupe, sl550 and a cls550. First car I dropped was the cls probably because I prefer coupes. Between the other two it was a choice between power of the c63 and the overall presence of the SL550 and I guess I want that overall wow factor more than the c63s power.
Since most of you have probably been owners of this car for a while now, I was wondering if there are any particular issues that I should be aware of? Any recurring problems in these models? The mileage on this car is 42000km. I hope the suspension wont bother me as much as it did on my CL. ABC pump related issues twice in a matter of 15000 kms!!
Looking forward to get some valuable feedback from all of you. Cheers!
