Hire a Mercedes-AMG SL 55 from a guide price of £1190/month — a proper folding-roof grand tourer with a thunderous V8, all-weather traction and true open-top glamour, on a flexible short-term plan with no multi-year lease and no credit check to get a quote.
Guide price · from £1,190/month. This is an indicative “from” guide price only — the actual price will vary with stock availability, term, mileage and your circumstances, and your rental partner confirms the exact figure before anything is agreed. Last reviewed 23 June 2026.
What is the AMG SL 55 like to drive?
The SL 55 is powered by AMG's 4.0-litre twin-turbo V8, producing around 469bhp and reaching 62mph in roughly 3.9 seconds thanks to 4MATIC+ all-wheel drive. It is a grand tourer first and foremost, with a rich V8 soundtrack, a slick nine-speed automatic and the composure to cover big distances in comfort, then sharpen up when the road turns interesting.
How does the folding roof work?
This generation returns to a fabric soft-top, which is lighter than a metal folding roof and helps keep the centre of gravity low. It raises or lowers electrically in seconds, even at low speed, so you can drop the roof at the first sign of sunshine. With the roof up the cabin stays impressively quiet, making the SL genuinely usable all year round rather than a fair-weather toy.
Who is the SL 55 for?
It suits the driver who wants glamour and pace without sacrificing everyday manners. Short-term hire is ideal for enjoying a convertible through the summer months without a long commitment. Explore our high-spec hire range or get a guide quote.
Mercedes-Benz SL — your questions
Can I hire a Mercedes-AMG SL 55 short-term?
Yes. We introduce you to prestige rental partners offering flexible terms, typically from around 6 to 36 months, so you are not tied into a multi-year lease. Getting a guide quote involves no credit check and no obligation.
How much does it cost to hire a Mercedes-AMG SL 55?
From a guide price of around £1190/month, though the exact figure depends on the term, mileage and your circumstances. The rental partner confirms the final price before anything is agreed.
Is the SL 55 all-wheel drive?
Yes, the SL 55 uses AMG's 4MATIC+ all-wheel-drive system, giving strong traction in all weathers alongside its twin-turbo V8, so it is far more usable year-round than a traditional rear-drive roadster.
Do I need perfect credit to hire an SL 55?
Prestige vehicles are underwritten a little more carefully than everyday cars, but enquiring with us still involves no credit check and no obligation. We will tell you honestly what your options look like.
