Frequently Asked Questions
Sellers who achieve the maximum return, provide detailed history of their vehicle, and ensure that there are no issues that might require attention for any new owner. Of course, no classic car is perfect and there will inevitably be an expectation that some aspects of the car condition will need to be attended to at some point in time. Our inspection will highlight these areas of improvement.

SLSHOP can accept part exchanges providing the vehicle is relevant to our business. A part exchange is accepted and agreed on a case-by-case basis.
Due to the nature of the market, there are periods of the year where sales are quicker than others. We will market your car across our own platform, social media channels and other sites at the agreed value for a minimum of three months. After six months, we may reassess the marketing and price with you.
If we receive offers below the agreed value, we will always consult with you first.
All vehicles sold by SLSHOP are required to meet a specific standard and are certified as such. If you choose to use a different organisation to remedy any problems we have identified, we will have to repeat the inspection process to ensure the works have been carried out to our accepted standards.
Any remedial work to bring your vehicle up to standard must be paid for upfront, before the vehicle is listed for sale.
We offer competitive commission rates for our core SL models; with all other models being subject to agreement.
R107 SL: 12% | W113: 10% | R129 SL: 15%
