A good place to look for pricing and to find several for sale is www.oursl.com

Just be aware that not all cars listed on oursl.com are still there.
People list them and forget to remove them once they're sold.
When I was looking last year about 50% of the owners did not respond.

One good UK source is to join the MB owners club. Quite a few are listed for sale in the Gazette you get every month as member.

Where in the UK are you based?

There are a few dealers in London, but having seen some of the cars they had on offer when I was buying a few months ago, I would advise you to be very careful.

A couple of UK websites that always seem to have a good selection:

You could look at this - but as ever with a dealer....

The MB Club is the best bet, in my opinion, but the other really good place - and a few MB Club members use Mercseller...

If you're that side of town, have a chat with Michael Lavers at Silverarrows in Putney

He knows the cars very well, and while not the cheapest seller, knows a good'un

He always has one or two on his books/site
