At the start of the 1990s, after the introduction of their two-seat grand-tourer, the R129 SL, the launch of the Mazda MX-5 encouraged Mercedes-Benz set out to create a new compact roadster, slotted below the SL. By late 1991, under Bruno Sacco, the first design sketches were drawn, with scale models being built in the first half of 1992. Massively successful in its first year, worldwide sales hit 55,000, over double the entire nine-year production of 190 SLs and between 1996 and 2004, over 311,000 SLKs were sold. The roof design consists of a folding steel hardtop with both halves linked by a mechanism that is locked securely when the roof is closed.

First registered on 1st March 2004 and finished in the rare factory colour of Cubanite Silver with a Grey leather upholstery, this SLK with its 5-speed automatic transmission, displays a mere c.41,800 miles from new. The service booklet entries record a credible mileage of 12,272 in September 2005, 20,691 in October 2007, 40,205 in December 2020 and 40,029 in January 2020. We understand that some maintenance may also have been carried out by a previous owner who was an engineer. The SLK is being offered with the owner's wallet, handbook and stamped service book, a collection of invoices from Mercedes-Benz and independent specialists.
