A superb 2006 Mercedes-Benz SLK 280 finished in Cubanite Silver Metallic with contrasting Red leather upholstery. Having covered just 93,477 miles from new, this well-presented example has had just three former keepers and is supported by a comprehensive service history, a substantial folder of invoices and previous MOT certificates, together with two keys. One of the few early SLK 280s where the well-known balance shaft issue has already been professionally rectified. Approximately 5,000 miles ago the engine underwent a full rebuild at a cost of 8.5k, including replacement of the balance shaft components. More recently, the car has also benefited from a gearbox service and replacement gearbox control unit. Together, these represent some of the most significant mechanical work these cars can require and provide valuable peace of mind for the next owner. Finished in excellent condition throughout, the bodywork presents very well, the red leather interior has been well cared for and the car drives exactly as it should. The electric folding Vario roof operates correctly, the gearbox changes smoothly and the car is fitted with matching Pirelli tyres.
