My 4 year 1975 Mercedes SL450 Ownership Review | Daily Driver Cost and Reliability of the SL 450 

Beautiful car. In California we look for a 1975 or older so there is no smog check. Also like that you kept the original radio. Pure class. You can cut a piece of black computer mouse pad material to fit in the console so objects do not slide around. 80,000 miles on these engines is just broken in. Many of them last to 500,000 miles and beyond.

Just inherited one of these, big W210 fan boy and I'm more than tickled to get my 450SL running, really appreciate the video man. Got me excited to work on mine 👍👍

Wonderful. I have a 500 SEC (euro grey market imported) that I was driving around 4000 miles per year, but it’s been out of commission since I was rear-ended back in May of this year (2022). The frame wasn’t damaged, nor were the body panels, but I had some damage to the rear drive train and it’s been horrible sourcing the correct parts. I am praying the car gets back to me by Christmas so I can start driving it again. I really want to semi-daily it because the car has never left me stranded. The main reason I can’t have it as my only car is gas mileage. Premium fuel is now stupid expensive.

my 76 died....lost spark,changed everything and no luck

Man that looks so fresh. So smooth.

Hello , Do you know where i could buy the color mat for the wheels?

Can I ask where the replacement top was purchased? Currently looking for a very good replacement. Thanks! -Tara

Love it check out no exhaust on a 450sl spoiler big block,we do have euro bumpers now

Hi, I like your video on the 450sl, just wanted to ask how is the gas mileage?, some say 12 to 16 mpg, is that real? Please let me know,,,thanks,,,

The two back seats were an extra feature along with two mirrors and the hard top

Great that you're using it propper

Are you going to post more car videos? If you have an update on the 450SL.

Im looking at a 75 today. Anything I should look out for?

I just bought mine, it's a 1976. I'm in spring tx, where are the good cars and coffee meets with Mercedes enthusiasts?

FYI you can get the hard top and you won't need to remove the convertible top, heavy as hell tho haha

Any oil leaks or other fluids on yours I’m looking at a 1978 and the owner told me it has a couple of small leaks and was told by his mechanic that the is normal.

I own a 1973 450sl living in San Antonio, and it's hard to find a reputable shop to service my car. I just moved into the area. That makes it difficult. If you have any suggestions for the San Antonio area please share. Thanks Love your car!!!

How many cars do you have?

You can also put headunit in glovebox

Hello! Thank you for the great review! May I ask how economical this car is? With regards to fuel consumption?

I have the opportunity to buy a restored one that is basically mint condition but it has a blown head.. he wants $4k.. Is it a hard repair? thank you I appreciate any advice

Love that black wood

Beautiful car….I still prefer a new stereo system. Kept the old head though.

Looks like this car has not been in the sun as dash pad is nice so is delicate silver paint , Nice example !

So now I’m 2022 can I modify the bumpers

Or you could get an FM transmitter and use the original radio

So jealous man!

It is not a sl450 it is a 450sl.

0to60 not that impressive 10 seconds. 60 to 100mph acceleration is quite impressive. Long legged grearing makes high speed cruising at 100 mph easy. Tops out about 120

You look like Oscar Isaac ❤

Slc has back seat

This is not a car for daily driving

I think the car is a “ waste of money “. The “ Chevrolet of Beverly Hills..

Nárazník USA 🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮Nárazník Evropa 👍👍👍👍👍👍
