Ok, it's me that's happy. Just a few days in to SL65 ownership and I haven't been to my indie mechanic yet. What a wonderful car!

Should be fine for a while but you need to start really inspecting the hoses and proactively change the ABC fluid and filter. One blown hose and it starts a nasty domino effect that you don't want to experience.

Great looking car.

Yep, already have it scheduled and ABC fluid/filter is at the top of a long list of things to renew or inspect.

Thx!
