Used Mercedes-Benz cars for sale near South Shields

The car is exceptionally Good. I'm impressed. Everything is great and the security too is top-notch. I would definitely recommend.

Nice car with all required high tech features including rear camera

I think any Mercedes particularly the SLK, when buying 2nd hand brings some risk. If you can afford to lose the invested amount and or pay for expensive repairs/parts, then ok. If this is your 'saved up for car' or a car to be used everyday, don't do it. I have driven the SLK for over 19 years, the same car and I still love it. I only sold mine due to moving overseas. As a new car brilliant, more than 5 years old not so much. The pros is that it is economical on fuel, smooth and looks good no matter how old. However, there are more cons on a used Merc than pros. 1. Heated seats, electric seats etc wear quickly. They can be damaged by the moving of the seat back and forth and when this goes the computer goes and usually all the electrics. - Expensive to repair/replace. 2. SLK's are prone to letting water in, in rainy seasons as the outlet from the bonnet is on one side and can be blocked easily by leaves etc. Same for the boot. Water inside the car can affect the electronics which are on the floor of a Mercedes (go figure). - Very expensive to repair. 3. Roof mechanism can become problematic and stick after some years. - Expensive to repair 4. Services are expensive 5. Tires are expensive 6. Central locking if your key goes is expensive to replace and often no one able to do so other than Mercedes (we found a local who was a mobile key person) And although it looks so good it is not a comfortable ride in general due to it's low proximity to the ground -however that is most sportscars.

Suitable family car and safety wise it's top notch. I will recommend it to all

I love my Mercedes-AMG SL43! I was unsure if I would like the ride and handling of my car after watching YouTube test videos on the latest (R232) SL43 but I need not have been. As for the new dashboard, the new switches and buttons are a refreshing change and an absolute pleasure to use! The buttons work without a problem with the ingenious haptic feedback that is given. Mercedes often takes the lead in car manufacture. Soft close doors first appeared on the S-class now Rolls Royce, Bentley and many others have adopted them. The new Mercedes switch gear will no doubt be adopted by other manufacturers eventually. I cannot recommend my (R232) SL43 enough. It is in fact replacing my SLK 280 from 2007 which has only covered 16k miles so I am letting my sister have it in her family as a future classic. The SL43 rides and handles beautifully and if, like me, you want a replacement for an SLK or SLC this is the right car for you. The new fabric hood makes it easier to style a great car which looks stunningly like the original 300 SL roadster from the 1950's and the SL43 carries on where the 190 SL and SLK and SLC left off! The SL43 is a stunning well made car that I have no hesitation in recommending! It's also great as a 2+2 for children in the back of the car!
