1998 Mercedes SLK Class SLK230

One previous owner , other than me, since new a very rare low mileage example of the early SLKs imported into the UK. The original owner was on a 2 year waiting list in 1996 with Taggars of Watford and the car was delivered 2nd March 1998.

Its the automatic transmission SLK 230 in brilliant silver, traditional Mercedes colour, with the stunning scarlet leather upholstery. The recorded mileage is 31, 580.

The car has always been garaged and only used for summertime leisure motoring , protecting from the elements and any corrosion. All four diamond cut wheels are perfect.

Full service records and original sale invoice available together with all MoT certificates.

Current MoT until July 2025 and new battery recent fitted.

Really drives like a new car , recent health check carried out with Mercedes specialist, commented how good the car was.

I have also upgrade the original Blaupunkt Radio to a more fitting DAB , Bluetooth example due to dead pixels. It now looks and sounds wonderful and the added Bluetooth telephone option is amazing. I purchased this beautiful car just before Christmas, from a lovely gentleman who had the pleasure of owning this car from new. At the time of purchase I was suffering a recent back injury but knew this was a rare find and had to have it. Unfortunately since then I’m now recovering from a fracture and newly diagnosed osteoporosis, as such driving a low car like the SLK is challenging to say the least!

It’s only right someone else enjoys this rare beautifully looked after SLK and also makes the most of spring almost here. It has always been garaged and only used for summertime leisurely motoring by the previous owner , and I’ve only managed approx 500miles.

Current MoT until July 2025 and new battery recently fitted.

The car is in its original condition but there are some minor bumper scratches and one above the off side front wing. This is a rare opportunity for someone to acquire a low mileage early SLK with full provenance.
Therefore it should make an excellent long term investment for the right owner. You will not be disappointed. No rust or corrosion is evident , it’s really is a beautiful example of these SLK’s and the interior just finishes it off. Any further information, pictures , walk around videos. Please do contact me. It’s been a tough decision to sell , I’m in no rush however I just cannot enjoy the car as it needs to be enjoyed and driven.
