This stylish and increasingly
desirable 2008 Mercedes-Benz SLK 200 Kompressor (R171) is presented in refined
Iridium Silver metallic with a striking deep red leather interior — a classic
and highly sought-after colour combination that perfectly suits the model’s
sporting character.
First registered in September
2008, this example is powered by the 1,796cc petrol supercharged engine paired
with the smooth and responsive 5-speed automatic transmission. The car has
covered a modest 80,952 miles and has been in its current ownership since July
2016, indicating long-term stewardship. In total, the vehicle has had six former
keepers.
When new, this SLK carried a list price
of £33,555, including £4,680 of factory-specified optional equipment. Notable
features include leather seating, 17-inch five twin-spoke alloy wheels, metallic
paint finish, the desirable Airscarf neck-level heating system, heated seats,
Interior Lighting Package and remote-control operation for the folding roof via
the key. Together these options create a particularly well-appointed and
comfortable open-top driving experience.
The car
benefits from an MOT valid until November 2026 and is accompanied by a
substantial history file comprising numerous receipts and invoices that clearly
demonstrate careful maintenance throughout its life. Importantly, the attractive
registration number MK03 SLK is included within the sale.
Driven some 35 miles to the sale, the vehicle started promptly,
stopped correctly and performed entirely as expected during our time on site for
photography and a brief video, presenting as an honest and usable modern classic
roadster.
A well-specified and well-documented
example of the ever-popular R171 SLK, offered ready for immediate
enjoyment.
