The seller offers for sale this 2008 Mercedes-Benz SLK 280 [R171], a stylish cabriolet powered by a 3.0-litre V6 petrol engine paired with a 7G-Tronic automatic gearbox. Originally delivered in Switzerland, the car was later purchased by its second and current owner in Hungary. It comes with full Mercedes-Benz service history, both digital and paper. Only used during the summer months and carefully maintained, this car has been cherished throughout its life. It retains its original paintwork, with only a barely visible scratch on a lower front panel. The interior is finished in black leather with red stitching, complemented by red seatbelts, navigation system, and AMG Line details. The engine starts without issue, produces no smoke or unusual noises, and the gearbox shifts smoothly. The car has never been in an accident, shows no signs of visible rust, and remains mechanically well with the next service due at 104,000 km.
The retractable hardtop roof is in proper working condition, fitting well and offering the flexibility of a coupé and a cabriolet in one. This makes the SLK a versatile roadster suitable for all-year enjoyment.
The Mercedes-Benz SLK, introduced in the mid-1990s, quickly became a symbol of compact luxury and sporty driving pleasure. The second-generation R171, such as this example, refined the formula with sharper styling, stronger engines, and improved technology. The SLK 280 in particular is valued for its smooth V6 performance, balanced handling, and everyday usability, making it a compelling choice for enthusiasts seeking both style and practicality. With its AMG Line details and well-preserved condition, this example represents an attractive opportunity for anyone wanting a modern classic roadster.
