[R129 SL] Planning on buying an SL500 (Andrew Somers)

[Robert Terry]

The tranny in the '90-'95 is excellent.  The tranny in the '96-'02 is comparatively more refined.  The '96 tranny can be troublesome, '99 and later have revisions that make them more durable than '96-'98.  The '99-'02 engine is gives slightly better 0-60 acceleration and is my favorite.  Hydaulic cylinders are very inexpensive to fix if you have them repaired by Dennis Ficken.  If you do a search at www.benzworld.org you will learn about him.
