Problem with SL's is that to most the standard car is good enough so most of them won't have the nicest toys on offer.Originally posted by eek View PostSo now you find the one on autotrader with the same options and start negotiating on price. The first offer is not the final one you can argue it...Comment

Only way to by an SL second hand is to put the effort into getting invited to the trade only Auctions the poor sap that traded in that 5 year old SL would have got less than you did for the payout on your one.

So far one problem identified - it seems that for some reason most of them don't have Keyless Go (which I had on my SL55 and it was awesome), and those that do have it got no Active Park Assist (auto parallel parking which is nice in a big motor), just one car got both - cheap price too, but interior is awful.Comment
