Description
This 1999 SLK230 belonged to my father-in-law from 2019 late 2024 when he passed it on to me due to his deteriorating health. He purchased the car from a local gentleman who had owned it from new so including me, it's a 3 owner car.
Being supplied and serviced by Mercedes Benz Eastbourne, it has an incredible provenance for a 25 year old car. With a fully documented Mercedes Benz Service History all the way to August 2023 and 20, 500 miles. It was serviced again by an independent garage in October 2023 having completed only a few hundred miles. It comes with a folder of receipts, invoices and MOT's as well as the original folder pack, stamped service book and two keys.
In terms of condition, it has been sparingly used and garaged its whole life and that is reflected in its appearance. If I were to pick out the negatives, both front wheel arches are showing very early signs of blistering on the leading edge of no more than 2 cms otherwise the paint is as close to perfect as you can expect including roof and at all four corners. The wheels will need refurbishing to make perfect, not from curbing but from lacquer peel. Inside, center console also suffers from peeling but otherwise, everything works as expected and the air conditioning blows cold, the heater is like a furnace. The roof operates perfectly.
It drives beautifully - I have covered 300 miles in it personally and can vouch that the engine is vibration free, pulls strongly and the chassis is as tight as it should be.
I am selling only because we simply will not use it this year and for a small outlay will surely bring somebody a huge amount of joy!
