Description
Showing 76,147 miles;
V6 3.2L engine; rare
and desirable 6-speed manual gearbox; V5C shows four former keepers; MOT valid
until September 2027
First registered in October 2001, this
Mercedes-Benz SLK 320 is fitted with the smooth and powerful 3,199cc V6 engine,
paired with the desirable 6-speed manual gearbox, a combination rarely
encountered and much sought after by enthusiasts. Finished in bright metallic
blue with a complementary blue and black interior, the car is showing 76,147
miles and presents as an attractive example of this increasingly collectible
modern classic roadster.
The car is accompanied by its V5C registration
document and benefits from an MOT valid until September 2027. Supporting the
mileage is an excellent history file which includes 16 previous MOT
certificates, 9 service stamps, the original handbook pack and a selection of
invoices documenting maintenance and upkeep over the years.
Introduced as the range-topping
model in the R170 SLK line-up, the SLK 320 combined Mercedes-Benz's innovative
folding steel Vario-Roof with the proven M112 V6 engine, producing around
215bhp. Offering a significant increase in performance over the four-cylinder
models, the 320 was capable of effortless long-distance touring while retaining
the compact dimensions and agile handling that made the SLK such a
success.
The robust nature of the V6 engine, together with the rarity of
the manual gearbox, has seen the best examples become increasingly desirable
among enthusiasts looking for an affordable and usable Mercedes-Benz sports
car.
A
well-presented and well-documented SLK 320, offered with a substantial history
file, long MOT and the increasingly sought-after V6 manual
drivetrain.
