Thanks for the add. Bought my wee low mileage (75k with full service history and all previous mots) 2 previous owner 99 slk 230 compressor about a month ago, and 2k in, she's still running perfectly. Came from a daily runabout audi tt mk1, but still have a good tt mk1 stashed away for the summer, and a mx5 for trackdays and highdays. Was never a fan of automatics, but have really started to warm to the slk, and it is certainly a much grown up sensible version of the little mx5. Well, it will do me, until I can find a cheap manual amg32, if there is such a thing. Don't even like silver cars, but this wee car, just looked a honest well looked purchase.
Personalising already started, with a set of 18s bought (need refurbed to the colours I want in next couple of days), have sourced a honda accord rear spoiler to 'finish' off the rear, got some 2002 facelift sideskirts, and going to colour code the lower front and rear bumper black sections. Will throw up pictures, as I work through fitting these on my week off this week. Coilovers next purchase, as I think she's nose heavy looking, and would like her more visually level, but will see how we go.... Cheers, Michael.
