MERCEDES / SLK 320 AUTO / Convertible 2 Doors / BLUE

2001 Mercedes-Benz SLK 320 (R170)

 Full Description:

Registered on 1st March 2001 (registration L22 LWG, which remains with the car), this Mercedes-Benz SLK 320 (R170) Automatic is a stylish and well-preserved example of Mercedes-Benz’s compact convertible, presented in desirable specification. Powered by the 3.2-litre V6 producing 215bhp and paired with automatic/tiptronic transmission, the SLK 320 offers refined performance with the benefit of Mercedes’ innovative folding steel roof.

 This car is finished in Linarite Blue Metallic with Anthracite leather interior and shows just 69,750 miles from new. It is well specified, with cruise control, electric seats, radio/CD, and the all-important electric folding roof, which functions perfectly. MOT is valid until 1st August 2026.

 The interior was recently stripped and fully refurbished to address the common issue of peeling rubberised paint on dashboard, centre console, and door trims. All panels were carefully cleaned, prepared, and refinished, leaving the interior in superb condition. Externally, the car has been restored at some stage and remains in excellent condition throughout, with only a small area of lacquer peel noted on the rear bumper. The AMG-style alloy wheels have been refurbished and present very well, with new Mercedes-Benz centre caps.

 Mechanical inspection shows that braking components, including discs and calipers, have been recently renewed. The car also passed its most recent MOT with only minor adjustment required to the headlamps. The MOT history overall is very strong, with only a handful of advisories and two minor fails across its life, underlining the careful ownership and maintenance it has received.

 On the road, the SLK 320 drives effortlessly, with smooth power delivery from the V6 and a sure-footed, confidence-inspiring feel. With its desirable colour combination, excellent condition inside and out, and reassuring history, this example represents an ideal modern classic roadster ready for enjoyment.
