Comments on this site include:
"The 1999 - 2006 V8s are only three valve, single overhead cam versions with less power and torque."
"Thus the best years for drivers are 1996, 1997 and 1998, which have both the quad-cam engine and the 5-speed transmission. They are the best SL500s ever made and are real Mercedes, not watered down Daimler-Chryslers."
"The best version [is] from 1996 - 1998."
£9,500 - no offers at this price.
