Cliff Richard's R230 SL500

[peterws1957]

Amari Supercars in Preston is selling CR's SL500. 19k miles and Chromoflair paint. A snip at £50k. Wonder how long that will be for sale? If you're a massive CR fan and into SL's I would have thought £20k at the very max. Who knows though. Thoughts?

You'd have to say 'Congratulations' to the buyer
(it's now sold)

 

[John Laidlaw]

unless they bought it with evil on her mind?

 

[Blobcat]

Probably has a decent stereo fitted, has to be wired for sound... I'm guessing with only 19K miles he didn't get his second week of summer holiday...

It may have been bought by a Batchelor Boy.......They can afford high prices, but I guess his wallet will be Tavellin' Light now

Apparently it was parked outside his mansion. He actually wanted to keep it but was to to "Move It"

Otherwise it'd be covered in Mistletoe and wine?

Wow, what a stock list they have !! When I was a young man I worked as a Salesman for a top end Sports Car Dealership but it was nothing like that !!

Really? About 15 years ago, someone we knew had an ex-ALW W140 S600. The composer must have been an S-class aficionado.

 

[Vintage Racer]

He's ok during the day, but keeps getting 'Miss You Nights'.

Yep, this is a W221...

 

[Donald McPherson]

Heard he is going to use it on his Summer holidays.

I wasn't doubting that - just commenting on Mr Lloyd Webber being a serial S600 owner...

It was wearing the MOV 1T plate when I last saw it some years ago.

Ian Paisley Jnr lives just down the road here in Suffolk now. In Oulton Broad to be precise. My wife is a Dental nurse and he was in there yesterday for dental treatment

I've met Cliff Richard in '92 in New Zealand at the hotel we were staying at. I wanted him to sign my log book to our '71 350SL which just happened to be in the glovebox. I couldn't find a blasted pen and he said he was in a bit of a rush. He was off to play tennis dress in tennis gear and the handle of a tennis racket sticking out of a Duffle bag. That was a missed chance
