Oh I know they're certainly not slow, 450bhp is respectable even by todays standards.

But compared to a 700bhp SL65 it will be

I had an SL63 for a short time. Once the tc was switched off it was overpowered for the chassis. I could not imagine that 1000lb/ft would result in useable power? Surely the slush box will get into a terrible state - I cannot imagine that an accounting driven firm like MB would over-engineer components like that?

Wasn't there a tv show where they drove a brabus monstered sl65 and brabus had to tune down the torque or else it would lunch the gearbox?

The box in the 55/65 AMG is the same box that Porsche used in their last tiptronic 997 turbos and people mod those with original boxes to rediculous powers!

They were hugely over engineered.

However, the 65 needed £5k of work so it's a no go, and the damn DB9 was sold this morning too

So now I'm 100% on the lookout for a DB9 - just a matter of time!

You've just missed the right car you would do a lot worse than call up John McGurk and tell him what you are after

I bought my DB9 from McGurk's and was very pleased with the whole experience. Good selection of cars, which is a real rarity (four DB9's in my price range when I first visited, which allowed me to compare colour combinations, specs etc).

There was no hard sell, happy to answer my daft questions and negotiations were clear and open. They were happy to get some work done before collection and the car was well prepped.

As specialists in one marque they are looking for repeat business from customers (on both the sales and servicing side), so consistent service and word of mouth is important. The father of a friend of mine bought a Vantage a few days earlier from them and was similarly pleased with the service he received.

I found McGurks good people to deal with.

Enjoy the search,

David

Bob,I am shocked.
Notwithstanding Lotto's mangled usage of the english language I have always thought of you as the torchbearer of polite and gentlemanly behaviour.
That you should stoop to the level of our fellow contributor ,the aforesaid Tony,who often uses impolite phrases to admonish others causes me angst.
If however you have to quote Tony I believe he says Tossers and not wker.
As for Lotto,as I understand it,he is "nouveau riche" and not like you and me of worthy heritage so therefore should be forgiven the odd faux pas.

Actually I was paraphrasing Nick but hey, Steve, isn't there a touch of caddishness in all men.

I have but the location of the dealer somewhat put me off as well as a couple of negative reviews online.

Is anyone familiar with them?

Vinnie, under no circumstances take anything on here as being serious........especially from a select few. Banter is rife on here but can be a bit 'in-house'. Don't worry, you'll get used to it. Good luck with the search.

I bought a car from them 6 years ago and was satisfied but obviously make your own checks.
I dealt with Peter the owner of the business.
