The SLK everyone wants to find 2000 Mercedes-Benz SLK 230 Kompressor automatic in silver with just under 90,000 miles. A genuinely smart example of a modern classic that still looks special, feels special and offers exactly what people want from an SLK. Most of the ones you see for sale now are tired, scruffy or simply don't feel worth the money. This one stands out. It presents far better than the average and has had the right attention in the right areas, giving it the feel of a car that has been cared for properly. Being the 230 Kompressor, it has the engine you want, with more than enough performance to back up the looks, while the automatic gearbox suits the car perfectly. Smooth, easy to drive and effortless when cruising, it has that solid old-school Mercedes feel that made these cars so popular in the first place. The automatic roof is fully working exactly as it should, which is a huge plus on one of these and means the car can be enjoyed as intended. Inside, it feels much fresher than many others on the market and also benefits from a flip-out Apple/Android CarPlay screen, which really modernises the driving experience while keeping the classic Mercedes roadster charm. The headlights have been restored, the wheels have been refurbished, and overall the car has been improved in the areas that matter most when you first see it. It will also come with 12 months MOT, so it is ready to be enjoyed straight away. People who know these early SLKs will know they are no longer just cheap old convertibles. Good examples are getting harder to find and, like many Mercedes models from this era, they are now being appreciated properly as modern classics that are holding their money well. Of course, it is not a brand new car, so there are the odd age-related marks as you would expect for the year, but overall this is a very honest and attractive example. If you want the cheapest SLK on the market, there will always be others. If you want one that looks right, feels right and stands out from the usual examples, this is the one to come and see
