2006 Mercedes-Benz SLK 200 Kompressor (R171) Auto

Highlights

• MOT to May 2026
• ULEZ compliant
• Remained within the same family for much of its life
• Very well-kept example in smart condition for its age

The Appeal

With its mission to be sporty, light, and compact, the Mercedes SLK-Class offered up this gem in the early Noughties. Small and stylish, with its Formula One-inspired tapering front, and its retractable hard top, deployable in just 22 seconds, this two-seater roadster blends performance and efficiency.

This 2006 example, with its sleek black finish, has been described by its owner as the perfect ‘executive sports car’. Having spent most of its life within the same family, recently fully serviced and equipped with new tyres, it is ideal for somebody looking for a sports car, with a little more practicality. Light and stylish, with enough boot space for a weekend’s luggage.
