The seller offers for sale a Mercedes-Benz SLK 200 from 1997. This compact cabriolet is powered by a 2.0 liter four-cylinder petrol engine producing 136 hp, paired with a manual gearbox. The car was first registered in January 1997 and shows a relatively low mileage for its age, supported by documentation. The engine runs well and the gearbox shifts smoothly. The car benefits from power steering, air conditioning and electric windows, contributing to comfortable everyday usability.
The current documented mileage is 65.000 km and it holds a valid technical inspection.
The electrically operated hardtop is in good condition and allows the SLK to be used as both an open roadster and a closed coupé, offering versatility in different weather conditions.
The Mercedes-Benz SLK marked an important step for the brand in the late 1990s, introducing a compact roadster with a folding metal roof to a wider audience. Known internally as the R170, the SLK combined sporty proportions with typical Mercedes comfort and build quality. Its driving characteristics focus on relaxed cruising with sufficient performance, making it suitable for both leisure drives and longer journeys. Over the years, the SLK has gained appreciation as a modern classic, valued for its innovative roof concept, timeless design, and dependable engineering. Today, well-kept examples are increasingly sought after by enthusiasts looking for an accessible and enjoyable open-top Mercedes.
