Are you considering purchasing a used sports car? Then the Mercedes SL400 is an excellent choice. AutoUncle present 24 options sourced from different dealership websites and online marketplaces.
Currently, the prices for a pre-owned Mercedes SL400 start at £16,995 and go up to £44,950.
The German car is being offered at different prices relying on mainly five factors: year, engine size and performance, fuel economy, number of miles as well as trim level.
For example, a newer model with low mileage or a premium version equipped with a high-performance engine generally demands a higher price than a car from an older model year, with higher mileage and no optional extras.
The Mercedes SL400 is offered in a varied array of trim editions, addressing different driving styles and essentials. The most popular ones are:
As you considers the cost of a used Mercedes SL400, it's fundamental to examine vehicles sharing identical trim level. If not, you might draw an inaccurate conclusion about which car to buy.
The predominant fuel variant for the Mercedes SL400 is petrol.
When contemplating fuel type choices, reflecting on your driving habits is important. What's your typical weekly driving mileage? Are your trips usually short or do they cover longer distances?
If you primarily drive short distances, electric, plug-in hybrid or petrol is typically a good fit. For longer commutes, a newer electric car is a good alternative - especially with access to charging. For longer daily commutes, a modern electric car is often suitable - especially if you can charge at home or at work. Despite the rise of electric cars, diesel can still be useful for long journeys and lack of charging options. Note that in some countries, high-emission diesel engines have been banned from entering certain cities.
On AutoUncle, the Mercedes SL400 is exclusively offered in the cabriolet body style. Cabrios and convertibles give the driving experience a new dimension. Thanks to their excellent hoods and weather gear, most models are fit for year-round use these days. Thickener is applied underneath the car to strengthen the chassis in lieu of a roof, which means that convertibles have a tendency to be heavier than normal cars.
