The Appeal
The R230 SL55 is really the supercar that you can actually live with. Whether that’s about the exquisite engineering, the spacious, comfortable cabin and big boot, the clever folding hard top that delivers coupe or convertible motoring at the touch of a button, or the visceral urge from its 500bhp AMG-crafted 5.5L V8.
This 2006 car is a really well kept example in popular black-on-black. It left the factory equipped with nearly $10,000 of options including upgraded seats, COMAND DVD system and the clever ABC suspension set up. It has been well looked after since, with regular servicing to June 2024 since when it has covered few miles.
The car is based in the Netherlands and all European import duties and VAT have been paid. Once road registered by the buyer, it offers a very rewarding way to munch miles. SL55 (6).jpg4.22 MB

This sale is subject to the Car & Classic Terms and Conditions. By bidding and/or making an offer, you also agree to the following:
✓ The seller of this vehicle is registered as a business seller. And you are covered by Car & Classic’s Terms and Conditions.
✓ We request that a non-refundable fee be paid if you are the lucky winning bidder at auction or if your offer is accepted. Please refer to our helpful FAQs and T&Cs for specific rates.
✓ This vehicle is “Sold As Seen”, on an “As Is Where Is’ basis and without warranty. Photos and descriptions are solely for guidance purposes and it's customary to carry out a full inspection of the vehicle prior to purchase for your own peace of mind.
✓ VAT is included in the buyer's fee. VAT may or may not be included in the final bid or offer price, as specified in the listing.
✓ We want a smooth transaction just as much as you do and as such we run all UK-registered cars and motorbikes for sale on Car & Classic through an online HPI check to verify that they show no insurance database markers for damage or theft, and have no finance owing, allowing you to bid with confidence.
✓ We also check whether vehicles are recorded as being written off as part of an insurance total loss claim at the time an advert is placed and we helpfully provide write-off category labels (Cat C/D/S/N) for your assistance, the presence or absence of a label does not guarantee the vehicle’s status and it's always worthwhile carrying out your own full vehicle history check before making an offer.
✓ Buyers are responsible for vehicle collection
