SL55 AMG
Subject: Thinking of Selling My SL55 AMG – Any Interest? (UK)

****(UK.)****

Sorry if this is not the right place for this….


Hi all,


After a few years of enjoyable ownership, I’m putting some feelers out to see if anyone on here might be interested in my 2004 SL55 AMG (Brilliant Silver with grey leather, 73,664 miles, good history, currently in storage in East Sussex).

I bought the car a few years ago and it’s been an absolute joy. We’ve had some great times with it, including an incredible drive down to the south of France, the car didn’t miss a beat.

During my ownership, I’ve taken care of a few important jobs to keep it spot-on:

It had aftermarket alloys, I replaced the original AMG wheels
  • Fitted a new ABC pump
  • Replaced the vacuum pump
  • Boot struts, battery, brakes.
  • Just had an MOT (April 2025)

It’s been kept in proper dry storage when not in use and only driven in decent weather. Comes with a service history (MB and specialists), all documented and scanned.

What do I want for it, god knows?

Feel free to drop me a message if you’d like more info, photos, or a chat. Would love to see it go to another enthusiast.

Cheers,

Tom
