Looking for a fun convertible.....E30 or R231 Mercedes SL?
Looking to add a convertible to my stable for $20k-35k.....
Either a really good condition E30 or a R231 SL550 (2013-2016).
Any thoughts on this? My first BMW was a E30 (not a convertible) but they always have had a soft spot with me. The issue is finding one that doesn't really need any work as I don't really have a ton of time to be restoring it.
I've had 2 R230 SL's and liked them, too. I like the hard top. You can find a nice SL550 for under $35k. I have heard the R231 is pretty reliable (this is why I don't want a SL63....because it has the ABC suspension standard and I still have nightmares of dealing with that on my R230....even though it's supposedly less problematic in the 231).
Any thoughts?
