Hi and greeting's to all. After a long succession of various old and new Mercedes i have somehow managed to get myself an SLK, waited a long time to get this and have to say it is great fun to drive! Car is a 2012 250CDi blue with Bengal Red Nappa leather inside, purchased from Mercedes Brooklands a couple of months ago.

Some tips to make your visit here more enjoyable: If you haven’t, please use the 'search' feature at the top right of the page for your questions as they have probably been asked before.

Remember, ‘Search’ is your friend. If you wish to become PM (Private Message) capable or to ‘edit’, you need 15 posts. To get those 15 posts quickly, just go to the ‘New members introduce yourself here’ section and welcome enough new members to obtain your needed posts to PM/edit. You can always pm a moderator. Want to post a picture? Start a new thread or make a post, click ‘edit’, click on the ‘paper clip’ or ‘advanced’ and/or ‘manage attachments’ then ‘choose file’ then ‘upload’ and ‘submit’! If Iphone pics, you need to rename any additional pics as Iphone names its pics all the same, image.jpg.

Want to ‘like’ or thank’ someone’s comments? Use the ‘like’ button to the right or the ‘Thanks’ button, bottom right of any post you like. This saves you having to comment.
New members should be aware that the 'New Posts' link next to the 'Search' link top right of the info bar is a great way to see all of the posts you have missed since you were on the forum last. Remember to click 'mark forums read' under ‘quick links’ when you leave.

FREE!! Post your vin in the Vehicle Datacard Request section to get a free datacard (options on your car). You must update your profile with vehicle info and your location and post an introduction first. https://www.slkworld.com/vehicle-data-card/67706-free-how-get-free-datacard.html

Welcome from just West of London - Some great weather this weekend for SLK ownership :tu:

While searching for My perfect Face Lift R172, I checked out "Brooklands" in August 2018...
After their initial coffee & "I'm You new best friend" chat, found the salesman very pushy & tried to sell Me a stock SLC that wasn't the spec I'd asked for during the said "get to know You chat"
Then stated that the SLC was no longer going to be manufactured, so take it or leave it.....!!! :surprise:
Needless to say I left it & found My perfect R172 at "Aylesbury" :grin:
