Every electrical function works as it should (except the non OEM stereo). This SL gets compliments constantly. Disclaimer: This little car with a big V8 is very fast and has cost me a small fortune in speeding tickets. However, it hasn’t cost a fortune in gas; it gets the best gas mileage of any R107. It rides like a Benz, smooth as silk, so you don't realize how fast you really are going, yet the car handles like a honed sports car; tight, communicative and super road gripping.
