New addition SLK 230K

[firman]

After what has been the most frustrating car search I remember we have finally found a car we were happy with, original thread here http://www.pistonheads.com/gassing/topic.asp?h=0&a...

Collect this tomorrow evening





Will post some better pics once it is home and the sun makes another appearance.

It is a 2 previous owner car with 79k on the clock and fsh, previous owner was a doctor and hasnt scrimped on maintanence. It was bought as a comfy replacment for an MX5. Will keep you updated as to how we get on with it,

Very nice Jamie congratulations, let's hope the weather picks up for you, my mum has a 230k which I have had the pleasure of driving a few times when the sun has come out and they pack a decent little punch performance wise have fun.

Hi your SLK looks good - I've recently aquired a similar version and although its not my usual type of car I'm enjoying the lazy comfy commute to work and back.
I have a question - should the windows drop a few mm when opened and lift when closed as mine don't but I feel they should?
If they should what do I need to fix?
The windows rise and fall perfectly well otherwise.


Cheers

Do you mean as in when you open the doors like in A BMW coupe? If so then no they dont and none of the ones we viewed (and that was plenty!) did either.
Hope this helps
