The Appeal
What a clever car the R171 is. It is a convertible that’s a coupe, and a relaxing GT that’s also a pointable sports car.
For press-on enthusiasts, the real world version to have is this one, the 301bhp 3.5litre V6. Its exceptionally rare 6spd manual box enables the R171’s excellent dynamics to come to the fore.
Beneath the Brilliant silver paintwork lies a stand-out red leather cabin Inside and out it is in very good condition, an impression reinforced by the full Mercedes-Benz service history. It is a low mileage car that was last serviced 200 miles ago in May 2024. The MOT runs to January 2025 with no advisories.
Practical as well as enjoyable in all weathers, with its low mileage, long MOT and excellent service history, this handsome SLK350 seems to tick all the boxes.
