About this car

The R230 SL55 AMG paired a hand-built, supercharged 5.4-litre V8 with a folding Vario-Roof, giving a fast, comfortable grand tourer that works as both coupé and convertible. Values for these supercharged AMG cars have been firming up in recent years.

This 2003 car is finished in Tanzanite Blue Metallic. The dealer says just under £10,000 was spent on it in 2022, with few miles covered since. The page gives no mileage figure.

It comes with a stamped service book and supporting paperwork. The interior is described as clean and the bodywork as smart. The original Motorola mobile phone is still in the central storage compartment.
