    I have owned a r107 r129 r230 and r231 . I only kept the r129 . It is my opinion the perfect balance between use ability and technology.

      to beggarwood , good great choice .. the R129 is the best among all SL models i believe

    The hardtops of these SL's made them so much more usable year round than new cloth roof SL's. Especially the glass roofs.

      @@snggarageeng CL140 is S-Class size which is heavier than I want. Not a convertible either. Still a tremendously luxurious experience.

    Plus , you have to use and drive the cars, the more they sit the more expense the more they cost to keep up.

    Got a SL500 R129 M113 and the R230 SL600. R230 for me, when working correctly 😂👍🏼

    I Went with his hiro Coil overs.. Just just replace these struts and have the liquid drain out of it I didn't worry about the rest of that abc system and I'll tell you something it's a little bit faster and it handles much better! .. The difference in the ride I can't remember it it's where the market really small,, Do not get the old man's mode I think you will be disappointed I drive it at the sport mode and the difference is just negligible.. Race cars require sway bars I didn't notice it in my driving time... I wonder whether the cell value will go up I doubt it?

    I've owned the both and the r230 is definitely a better car The quality isn't the same '90s versus 2000s but The roof operates fabulously and there's some decent power and once you get the coilover repair the suspension is eliminated
