Chanelle's former Mercedes for sale

A Mercedes SL350 previously owned by Big Brother star and lads’ mag favourite Chanelle Hayes is for sale on Auto Trader.

The 21-year-old made her name on Big Brother 8 in 2007 as a teenage Posh Spice lookalike, quickly getting male viewers’ pulses racing.

Following her exit from the house, Chanelle became a regular on the showbiz scene appearing in celebrity magazines, on TV and even releasing her own single – although it only made it to number 63 in the UK charts.

Chanelle is the second owner of this stunning white Mercedes SL350 which has 11,000 miles on the clock.

The convertible rolls on a set of 19-inch alloy wheels and boasts twin exhausts, xenon lights and cross-drilled disc brakes for optimum stopping power.

Under the bonnet of the Merc is a 3.5-litre V6 engine which develops 315bhp and 266lb/ft of pulling power.

With the power channelled to the rear wheels, the convertible will accelerate from 0-62mph in 6.2 seconds before hitting a top speed of 155mph.

When Auto Trader test drove the SL350 last year we found the Mercedes to be a stylish and quick convertible with an engaging drive and minimal bodyroll through corners.

It’s fully loaded with luxuries including sat-nav, a CD autochanger, parking sensors, climate control, leather seats and an ‘air scarf’ which keeps your neck warm when travelling with the roof down.

Chanelle is a fan of convertibles having previously been spotted driving a BMW Z4 and Audi TT.

Now you can buy her former Mercedes from Yorkshire-based prestige car dealer GC Motors for £54,990.
