If it's silver it must be an AMG 63 of some sort.

Was looking very nice when I spotted it earlier on my way to work.
Doing some mods/repairs already?

I won’t say what it is so as not to spoil the surprise.

No mods or repairs required on this one Wullie. I fitted my dash cam earlier today then took the missus out for a run, with the top down.
Oops! There’s another clue

This evening I was giving it a good polish, especially under the sills. Dealers tend to forget the sills go all the way round and just give them a quickly polish over the tar spots

Pop in anytime Wullie for a closer look.

Looks cracking bud will need to pop past for a catch up.

Ok guys to keep you out of your misery

It’s a 2004 Mercedes 350 SL and with just 8,000 on the clock. It was sitting at 7,800 when I picked it up last week in Alderly Edge.
It covered 6,114 miles at its first service and has been Main Dealer serviced every year since some with around 100 extra miles from previous. It’s also has 13 clear pass MOT,s two in one year at a change in ownership. The guy who bought it only covered a few 100 miles before trading it back into the same dealership for another car he fancied.
It’s a real peach and is practically like a new car, it’s still hot the original Continental tyres which are in very good condition despite being 15 years old.
I was told the colour was Tellar Silver but I can’t see that as a MB colour so I think it may be Tellurite Silver.
I will get some photos on soon.
