The Appeal

The Mercedes-Benz SLK is among the very best modern classic convertibles money can buy. Stylish, fun to drive and superbly engineered, they're the sort of car one can buy with their head as well as their heart - something that can't be said of many convertibles, old and new.

This 2011 R172 generation example presents in a tasteful colour combination with the Sahara beige leather interior, complemented by the dark wood trim option rather than the standard aluminium. With its comprehensive service history and recent mechanical attention, including a new complete camchain kit installed by a Mercedes specialist, this SLK represents a well-maintained example of this popular roadster that's ready to be enjoyed.
