At the start of the 1990s, after the introduction of their two-seat, grand-tourer R129 SL and the Mazda MX-5, Mercedes-Benz set out to create a new compact roadster, slotted below the SL. By late 1991, under Bruno Sacco, the first design sketches were drawn, with scale models being built in the first half of 1992. Massively successful in its first year, worldwide sales hit 55,000, over double the entire nine-year production of 190 SLs and between 1996 and 2004, over 311,000 SLKs were sold. The roof design consists of a folding steel hardtop with both halves linked by a mechanism which is locked securely when the roof is closed.
At the touch of a button on the centre console, a hydraulic system controls the fully automatic folding process in which the boot lid is also integrated. Originally registered on 6th November 1997, this Mercedes-Benz is finished in silver with a contrasting two-tone interior. The condition of this handsome German beauty is a testament to its previous owner. The options specified on the original invoice include leather trim and automatic transmission. The impressive power roof works faultlessly, and she is fitted with a Panasonic CD player. This car was registered as a Category C insurance loss in January 2001.
With an engine that starts on the button, this Mercedes-Benz is described as driving with no known faults. Supplied with a V5C registration document this striking SLK 230 is offered for sale without reserve.
