I am looking for some help and adivice please.
My Mum has a 2005 SL500 which she wants to sell. She is now resident outside of the uk so for ease would like to have a garage sell it on SOR. Can anyone recommend a good place for this?

Sale or return is risky.If the dealer goes bump after hes sold your car but before he has paid you then you are unlikely to see any money at all.

Have a look at the Classic Benz thread on here.

That car should be a straightforward sale. Depending on how much you want/hassle of selling privately, I imagine it would be very easy to shift.

Thanks for the comments. There are 2 dealers I have bought from in the past I might try, but will give it a go on here for a few weeks first.
The problem is I already have 3 cars in town so lack of space meant selling on sor at a garage would have been easier. I guess on the plus side is I can waft around in it whilst I have it.
