1999 Mercedes-Benz SLK 230

Muscular, poised, predatory and competitive, those are the words used to describe the Mercedes-Benz SLK.  Mercedes-Benz designers and engineers continue to remain the world leaders in creating a peerless and beautiful vehicle.

For 1999, Mercedes Benz chose to unveil something different; a 2-passenger sports car with a supercharged 2.3-liter 4-cylinder engine. Rather than a soft top though, the SLK featured a metal roof that powers down at the touch of a button into the trunk for stowage. Taking only 25 seconds, the trunk lid opened forward for cargo, and tilted from the rear to raise or lower the top.

SLK stands for sporty, light, and compact in German. The design work behind the SLK stemmed from the compact C-Class sedan. The presence of the supercharged engine was marked with a 'Kompressor' badge on the front fenders. This Mercedes SLK  offers a 5-speed manual transmission, for real sports car driving. Traction control, door-mounted side airbags and antilock brakes were standard features.  (For 1997 the SLK was on Car and Driver's Ten Best list.)

 

This Mercedes Benz SLK230 is special; due to the fact that is a gorgeous hard top convertible with the rare manual 5 speed transmission. It has been extremely well kept and would make the future owner very happy!  

It comes with:

CD Changer

Leather Seats

Power Windows

Keyless Entry

Power Convertible Hardtop

And Much More

            This beautiful 1997 Mercedes Benz SLK230 Kompressor, has only 87,540 original miles. This beautiful hardtop convertible had been a Florida car since 2004, then it was kept in our Michigan garage, and never driven in the winter. This means it has been a rust free car it’s whole life. This Mercedes Benz had an original MSRP of $42,195 and is highly optioned. It is shown in Brilliant Red Metallic paint on black leather seats. The previous owner took meticulous care of this Mercedes Benz and it is currently in outstanding mechanical condition. My wife purchased this car for her summer "fun" car and was never driven in the winter. The car has been dependable and a lot of fun, but she has now purchased another summer "fun" car and we don't feel we can spend adequate quality time with the car now.  And as a true sports car it has the 5 speed manual transmission, so you can really drive the car!  If you are planning on traveling from far away to come see us, this vehicle would be perfectly safe to make a long ride home!

Comes with Owner’s Manual and Both Keys.

Because it is a used car, is does show some signs of wear, commensurate with age and mileage.  It has a few scratches on the glove box door and a few minor scratches in the paint.  Please feel free to give me a call with any specific questions.

Highlights from the Goodwood Festival of Speed, including the McLaren P1 and a Ford Transit running the hill

Mon, 15 Jul 2013

The sole purpose of this post is as a time-waster, and since you shouldn't have to work to waste time, we've done it for you. In the numerous videos below you'll find cars that have lately been in the news tramping all over the grounds of Lord March's estate in Goodwood, England.
There's the McLaren P1 heading up the hill, the Jaguar Project 7, then a casually-driven Porsche 917 followed by an even-more-casually-driven Porsche 956, topped off by a Porsche 936 that is anything but casually driven. The next round is the flame-spitting Peugeot 405 T16 Pikes Peak from Climb Dance, a camera mounted on the Peugeot RCZ R after it showing you what the whole, uninterrupted run up the hill looks like. For a real head-turner, we couldn't embed it but there's Andy Reid blasting up the hill in a Ford Transit Supervan with a Cosworth 3000 V6 engine.
The modern racing contingent has Allan McNish doing the hill in the Audi R18 e-tron quattro he used to win Le Mans and Lewis Hamilton making lots of tire smoke in the Mercedes-AMG Petronas MGP-W02. For comparison, that's followed by Nick Heidfeld's record-setting run up the hill in 1999 in the McLaren MP4/14 . The classic racing contingent is headlined by 71-year-old Giacomo Agostini on an MV Agusta.
