THE APPEAL

First launched in Britain in 1996, the SLK was a huge hit for Mercedes, offering the convenience and all-weather ability of a coupé, combined with the style and panache of a convertible. When the range was revised, this 3.2-litre V6 model was introduced.

This car is a late example of the R170, benefitting from a smart colour scheme and specification, together with that oh-so desirable V6 drivetrain. Add to that this vehicle's extensive service and maintenance record and its low mileage, and you have a vehicle that looks like it could be a real charmer.
