MERCEDES-BENZ SL-klasse · photos, packages and modifications

The Mercedes SL is a premium and exclusive vehicle and due to its popularity with people from the upper class, the car carries a certain amount of prestige. The drivers are offered a sporty character on the vehicle as well as excellent comfort which is an excellent combination considering that it cannot be found in its rivals which include the BMW 6 series, as well as the Porsche 911 Cabriolet.

The car has a V8 petrol engine which is quite quick, since it can accelerate from 0 to 62 mph within 4.6 seconds. The 155 mph is the top speed which is electronically limited. You will find the driving position to be highly comfortable with a wide range of adjustments. The car also has excellent visibility even when the roof is down or up. However, you will also notice that the wind deflector that is automatically controlled can prove to be a hindrance for the rear view when it is raised. The car has increased 57 mm in track, but it has been made much lighter than before. This ensures better handling and although, this car cannot match the handling of the Porsche 911, it is not far behind.

You can rest assured that even though the car has not been tested by the Euro NCAP design, this car has a host of safety features which will guarantee a five star rating. These features include electronic safety features and a huge host of airbags, and the fact that the brand has an excellent reputation.

The car has its basic focus on providing excellent interior space for both the driver and the passenger. The boot when the lit is down has a space of 350 liters which is quite big. The hard roof can come off within 20 seconds and the parking sensors are standard in all the versions, making this car an excellent buy.
