- This exceptionally clean and well presented 2007 R230 Mercedes SL is a gorgeous example of one of the all time greatest Mercedes. Not only does this car have jaw-dropping good looks, it is also one of the best GT cars of all time - Meaning you get to enjoy wind-in-the-hair motoring along with the ability to cross continents with ease. It is presented in excellent condition, as a practical and useable modern classic. The R230 features a fully electric hard top convertible roof which folds away in seconds and looks amazing up or down.

The SLs image is 2nd to none when it comes to open-top opulence and it has a timeless design which has aged gracefully and turns heads wherever it goes. The Obsidian black coachwork with black hide interior is a classic and desirable combination with a flawless finish and a deep shine. Inside its one of the nicest interiors you will ever find. Properly built with sumptuous full leather trim, the SL has a quality finish that makes it feel more like a super-yacht than a regular car. The black leather and milled aluminum the adorns this 2007 car is one of the most appealing interiors of any SL I have seen. Thanks to its electric folding, hard-top roof, the SL is the sports car which is great to drive all year-round. Powerful, handsome and oozing style the SL is THE convertible to be seen in...
I have always been a huge fan of these cars, and this one is exceptionally pretty with its original 18" alloy wheels which show off the huge drilled brake discs and red brake calipers that provide a flash of colour. Power comes from a normally aspirated 3.5 litre V6 mated to a 7-speed automatic gearbox with tiptronic function. That means silky smooth performance, delivering an impressive 272 bhp to the rear wheels. That gives the SL impressive performance with a top speed of 155 mph and a sprightly 0-60 time of just 6.4 seconds. With that sort of performance this is a real, fun car to drive - But it's also very refined on the motorway where you really get to appreciate the cars cruise control function. The SL has heated seats and behind the front seats there is additional room for luggage - That means this is the perfect car for long weekends away in the lake district or even a cruise down to the south of France.
Whenever you drive this SL It picks you up and whisks you away silently and without any fuss yet it covers ground at such a rapid pace that you will always arrive at your destination sooner than you thought. The ride and handling are also excellent but with a limo-like ride quality that you simply would not get on any other roadster. This SL350 model has conventional suspension as apposed to the more troublesome and complicated ABC suspension on the SL500 and 55 models. These SL350s are much more inexpensive to run and still provide you with plenty of performance. It's certainly something you should consider if you are looking to buy one of these cars.
In summary, it may be 17 years old, but my SL350 still feels solid & tight - you can tell from behind the wheel that this is a quality product which has been superbly well looked after - On long journeys you will appreciate this cars superb driving position and comfortable leather seats which ensure you always feel totally relaxed.
