SUMMARY

An outstanding SL63 AMG with single ownership and just 16,740 miles recorded.

DESCRIPTION

The R230-generation SL was an instant hit following its public debut at the 2001 Frankfurt Auto Show and subsequent crowd-pleasing performance as the F1 Safety Car at the German Grand Prix at Hockenheim in the same year. The flagship models of the range were the mighty AMG models from the wizards at Affalterbach in the form of the V8-powered SL55 AMG and V12 Bi-Turbo SL65 AMG. Both models offered tremendous performance and equally exceptional road holding and ride quality thanks to their advanced 'ABC' suspension system.

The facelifted SL63 was launched in 2008 and replaced the previous SL55 model, the supercharged 5.5-litre V8 of the former model making way for the M156 normally aspirated 6.2-litre V8 as seen in the S63 model. As to be expected with any new AMG SL, the SL63 offered exceptional performance from its 518bhp V8 with 465 lb/ft torque mated to an all new MCT 7-speed automatic transmission with steering wheel-mounted paddle shift.

With just one owner from new and an exceptionally low recorded mileage of just 16,740 miles, this black SL63 with black Nappa hide has clearly led a very cherished life indeed. It was originally supplied by Mercedes York to its present owner in September 2009 and fastidiously maintained since with every annual service being carried out by Mercedes themselves, a fact that will not go unnoticed by any potential purchasers, with regular care and attention being of paramount importance.

The specification of the AMG as a standard vehicle is impressive, with noted additions being the SMG automatic transmission, the panoramic roof, the air scarf and KEYLESS GO® alongside numerous other factory-fitted details such as the surround sound system, the electric boot opening and closure and the never to be forgotten garage door opener!

The SL is supplied with a factory cover and a factory trickle charger with dealer-fitted fused fly lead. Having been garaged throughout its life, the overall condition is superb throughout and we suggest warrants your early inspection to fully appreciate the quality on offer.
