Can a 2003 SL500 be made reliable?
I know the weaknesses of the ABC and top hydraulics, my question is, are there mods/updated components that can be included to improve these systems during repair so that one does not have to repair again for a reasonable time?

I think so. You have to look at the weak points of the car and plan to repair accordingly. I’m not sure if you have an r230 or considering getting one. In my opinion, I have a 2003 r230, address the major areas with the thought of keeping the car and driving it, so the easy fixes need to be replaced with lasting repairs.
