The R170 series SLK is rapidly becoming sought-after by collectors and enthusiasts for its timeless good looks, and this rare 6-cylinder example with its low mileage and original unmolested condition will please the most discerning Mercedes enthusiast or sports convertible buyer. It drives through a 5-speed automatic transmission to the rear wheels in the classic sports car tradition and can sprint from rest to 100km/h in just 6.9 seconds. This car is the range-topping SLK320, and hence it is powered by the proven and reliable 160kW 3.2L V6 engine. Standard features include cruise control, a leather steering wheel, high-quality factory audio system, turned aluminium trim, dual zone air-conditioning, Electronic Stability Program (ESP), traction control, 16-inch 5-spoke alloy wheels and more. Delivered new for the WA regional office of Mercedes-Benz Australia, the car was eventually retailed for the first time in NSW and comes with a service history by McIntosh of Mosman/North Shore Mercedes, along with the original manuals, factory literature, and spare remote key. This highly original 2000 R170 SLK320 has covered just 53,048km since new, and is finished in stunning Lazulite Blue with a Quartz/Siam Beige two-tone leather interior. Unique to the SLK amongst this new brat-pack of roadsters was its folding steel vario-roof, enabling it to transform in seconds from a convertible to a hard-top coupé. The badge was also derived from naming conventions first used by Mercedes many decades before: Sportlich (sporting)…Leicht (lightweight)…Kurz (short wheelbase). The SLK was designed by Daimler’s legendary chief stylist Bruno Sacco, and was a salute to the classic 190SL of the 1950s…even sharing the earlier car’s 2,400mm wheelbase. In the final few years of the twentieth century, cashed-up sports car fans were treated to the arrival of a flurry of desirable new two-seater roadsters – most notably the Porsche Boxster, the BMW Z3 and the Mercedes-Benz SLK. The second half of the 1990s saw two trends emerge which significantly altered the automotive scene: firstly, the rise of the SUV as a passenger car alternative and secondly the reappearance of the compact roadster.
