2003 Mercedes-Benz SL55 AMG Convertible

Description

I’m selling my 2003 Mercedes-Benz SL55 AMG convertible — it’s one of those cars that just feels right when you see it. I’ve had it for years, mostly parked in the garage, and it’s been properly maintained through the years. The engine’s a 5.4L, good for 476 bhp, so it doesn’t just glide — it roars when you want it to. I’ve never driven it hard, so it’s still in great shape, and the automatic transmission handles everything smoothly, no fuss.

Inside, it’s all leather — Alpaca Grey, which I always thought looked sharp. The seats are heated, memory, and have lumbar support, which is a real plus on long drives. I’ve kept the original dealer plates and stickers in place, and it has full service history. The navigation system is still working, and there’s a Bose system, which I still use occasionally when I’m on a road trip.

The 18-inch AMG alloy wheels and Pirelli P Zero tyres are all original, and the car comes with parktronic and tyre pressure monitoring — both of which I’ve found useful, especially when parking in tight spots. There’s also an electronic stability program, cruise control, and all the safety stuff you’d expect.

It’s been kept clean and well looked after, so it’s not just a pretty face — it actually drives well and feels solid. I’ve only used it for short trips, mostly around the area, and it’s still in great condition inside and out.

I’m based in Washington, Sunderland, so if you’re interested, just give me a call. I’ll arrange a viewing when it’s convenient — no rushing, no pressure. The car is on display at our showroom there, and I’ll make sure you can see it properly.

It’s not cheap — it’s actually £19,795.50 — but I’ve kept it in good hands, and I’m happy to part with it. If you’re someone who appreciates a classic with a bit of muscle and style, this might be something you’d actually enjoy.

Let me know if you’re serious — I’m not selling it to anyone who’s just looking for a quick deal. Just a genuine, well-kept car that I’ve loved over the years.
