Can't reccommend anyone, but I live in Mansfield and have owned a number of SL's over the last few years the newest being a 2000 model and the oldest a 1989 which I still have as it seems the better built of the ones I've tried.
If you let me have the details I would be happy to pose as a buyer and give it an initial once over this weekend and offer an unbiased second opinion.
For the last five years I have maintained my SL's personally so I have seen many of the common faults and know what cars should look like at various mileages and ages.
I also quite enjoy winding up car dealers, especially the ones who are selling absolute heaps of which there are a few in this part of the world!
