Hi, SLK R170 230 kompressor Leeds area

[dt4]

Evening all,
I am David, from Leeds.
I have had a look at SLK R170 230 kompressor (2001 plate) and whilst doing so realised that I knew nothing about them
Ive had a few sporty cars, a succession of Celica GT4's, a UR quattro and others but never had a Merc

Is there a buyers guide that I could be pointed towards, are there any common faults or issues to be aware off etc.....

thank you

Evening David,

Welcome to the forum. Sorry no good at SLKs but someone will be along soon who is.

Hello and welcome to the forum from a fellow Yorkshireman.

As with most Mercedes of that era, rust and making sure the electrics all work would be high on my list.

Other than that, I'm sure SLK owners on the forum will be on their way to give you some more in-depth advice.
