At 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 up and scale models were 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.

This superb example of this compact sports convertible has only covered just over 16,000 miles from new and has only had one owner from new. It is presented in black with black leather interior, both of which are in superb condition, as you would expect with a car that has done barely 1000 miles per year since it was built! It comes with a full Mercedes-Benz service history, all carried out by the same main dealer since 2004. This SLK comes with its electric roof, electric windows, automatic gearbox, sat nav and has an MoT test certificate which expires 18th October 2024. A great 'pocket rocket' with its smooth V6 providing good performance for cruising or swift country road driving and in fantastic condition throughout, with added bonus of being ULEZ compliant.
