Who are SLSHOP?
Mercedes-Benz cars were always in my blood. First, as a toddler helping my father repair Pagodas, 108’s and 111’s. Then, as a teenager buying and selling classics. And also as a hobby business while on the corporate wheel.
In 2006, the SLSHOP was born. Recently, we’ve turned a passion for SL’s into a thriving, passionate business. As of now, over 15,000 customers have bought a car, serviced or restored their car, or bought a part from us.
