The Appeal 

The second generation of Mercedes-Benz’ compact SLK seems like the answer to most motoring questions that enthusiastic drivers might pose. There’s the choice of cossetted coupe motoring or sunny convertible driving. The Mercedes-Benz quality. The practical, comfortable cabins and the high specification. These are cars for long and short distances, warm or wintry weather, A roads or winding Bs.
In the case of this car there is also the M272 3.5L V6, which is good for over 300bhp. That motor turns this SLK into a proper mini GT, helped along by the 7spd automatic gearbox. 
It is a well kept car, finished in the popular combination of Obsidian Black with tasteful red leather interior. It is a low mileage car with full service history showing eight service stamps to June 2024. The car has covered few miles since the last service. 
With advisory-free MOT to June 2025, this very smart 350SLK is ready for warmer weather and longer drives.
