Don't have the Alfa anymore either, wife made me sell it too, she said everytime something broke on it it was her fault, haha. they are great cars but the last few years were built with cheap parts. Mechanically they were fun to drive but when little things like door handles break regularly its time to get rid of it.

I look forward to them coming back into the country.

I dont know a lot about the sl but a family member has a 91 320sl that sits for years at a time and every time he wants to drive it it needs new fuel pumps. Fuel in the tanks can clog lines and fuel injectors and cause more problems than that i'm sure. get it fixed right now and you will have a nice car for a long time.

I've been looking into one of those sl's lately myself, the price on all used mercedes accross the board have really come down and I like the pre-chrysler stuff a lot.
