The current (i.e. MY09 onwards) R171 SLK comes as standard with Parameter Steering. This is the normal, speed-sensitive power steering system;
As an option (see page 17 of the Jan 2011 Pricelist, available for download here), you can specify and pay for Option Code 213 which is described as Direct Steering. This is also a speed-sensitive power steering system but with the addition of variable rack ratio.
They are different things - as I explained in the other thread.
Direct Steering was certainly an option on MY09 cars, but I can't be certain about MY08 - the best way to verify that would be to find a MY08 pricelist (sorry, i don't have one).So I understand that face lift models started spring 2008 but the direct steer was not available until 2009
