The Appeal
If you're looking for a convertible to enjoy the summer months - which you certainly should be in our view - this 2001 Mercedes-Benz SLK 320 ticks a lot of boxes.
Garaged from new and with a mere 17,750 miles on the clock, this SLK is in rare order.
It has been very well cared for by its two registered keepers and was purchased new with all options selected, including a set of AMG wheels. A guaranteed future classic, if not one already, this Mercedes-Benz represents an unmissable opportunity. Recent recommissioning and long MOT ensure it's ready to hit the road.
