    We ordered and have had delivered today her brand new SLK today meaning we have her existing Mercedes-Benz SLK AMG sport package is for sale.

    SLK photo.jpg


    200 Kompressor Roadster

    Registered 31/3/2010 with only 29’000 miles

    Full factory service history regardless of cost

    Brand new MOT today (15/01/16) it wasn’t due one until the end of March but we wanted to know it was all ok before we sell it.

    It has one actual previous owner but was preregistered beforehand to meet Mercedes-Benz dealer targets. We have owned it since the end of September 2011.

    It has a private plate on it at the moment but this will be removed by us and the originally allocated 10 plate will be fitted before sale.

    I will ignore the obvious and just list the fully loaded sport package including the following specification options:

    · Electric retractable hard top

    · Automatic transmission with F1 paddle shift override

    · Cruise control

    · Designo Mystic Blue metallic paintwork

    · Black leather upholstery

    · 18” AMG Alloy wheels

    · AMG sports suspension (uprated and slightly lower running than standard)

    · AMG multifunction steering wheel

    · Climate control with individual passenger heating control

    · Heated seats

    · Height adjustable driver and passenger seat

    · Airscalf

    · Parktronic

    · Rain sensitive wipers

    · Interior lighting package

    · Bluetooth and telephone prewiring

    · On board computer

    · CD auto changer

    · Automatic retractable wing mirrors

    · Alarm and immobiliser

    · Fog lights

    · AMG floor mats

    Now the bad bits, the n/s front and rear alloys have a few scratches on the rims, the tyres are so thin I can hardly blame her, but trust me I did. There is a light but long scratch on the n/s front wing and door where someone caught the car whilst it was parked in the station car park. Both of which I was going to get repaired but someone in the trade told me to leave it as its better for a perspective purchaser to see it rather than trying to hide it. They can then decide on the repair, this is more than reflected in the low asking price.

    The car will be fully valeted in the next few days and I will be happy to provide any requested photographs as the scanned ones above or not very good.

    The car was sold to a friend of ours but they had to back out when they were told their central heating needs replacing, so we are looking for a quick sale at £11’000 which is a snip when you consider how well appointed this lovely low mileage car is and a grand less then we were offered if we had part exchanged it.

    The car is located in North Cambridgeshire.

    Any interest or questions please just send me a private message.

    Simple answer Dave, you know who I work for although not the car division. There is a model facelift coming this year, not a new model per say but a bit of a face lift and change of designation from SLK to SLC. I decided to lease the new one instead of out right purchase and the deal was to good to over look. Plus the specification has been uplifted big time. I also changed my E Class Estate today for a new one for exactly the same reason. Told you it simple, simple mathematics.

    Oh, and thanks for linking to the SLK forum pal.
