Used Mercedes-Benz SL-Class for Sale near Nanaimo, BC

Of all of the cars I have owned, the performance, looks and fun factor are all contained in the 1994 Mercedes SL500. It is a solid car with no squeaks or rattles. It averages about 20 mpg, which is it's only down side (especially since it requires Chevron's top gas). Maintenance is limited to oil changes, which are pricey, but with synthetic oil, lasts for 7,000 miles. With a removable hard top, this car rocks! It is also extremely safe because of its speed (easy to get out of tight jams) and handling.

Fantastic car, never ever feeling its age (>20 years!). A rather performing engine, this would probably be the last built by engineers and perfectionists rather than accountants. Absolutely gorgeous, but never pretentious. You won't feel out of place no matter where you take it.

Good daily driver, reliable & fun. Not so good on snow or ice though. Plenty of power but gas mileage (using Premium) is not the best. Good touring comfort. I really like the turning radius - much better than my Jag. Great classic style.

Body style is handsome and timeless. Handles tight corners with confidence and the removable hardtop to soft top versatility affords a rich driving experience. Resale value and prestige are both high. Driving the Mercedes 500SL is almost as much fun as owning one.

Classy car that defers to no other. Okay, it's not as fast as the 500 but of all the 129's its the SL with the original personality of its predecessors. It's Bruno Sacco at his finest, and attracts attention moving or not. This is what $84,000 bought in 1994.
