2009 MERCEDES-BENZ SLK

This lot will be auctioned via Iconic Auctioneers, The Classic Sale at CarFest 2026 on Saturday the 29th of August - Sunday the 30th of August, The Wing, Silverstone Circuit, NN12 8TN.

The Mercedes-Benz SLK 350 is a compact, rear-wheel-drive luxury roadster that combines open-top driving with everyday usability. One of its defining features is the electrically folding metal hardtop (Vario Roof), which gives you the security and refinement of a coupé when closed and a convertible when open

The second generation (R171) received a 'facelift' in 2009 with an upgraded 3.5-litre V6 engine that raised output from 268bhp to 305bhp

The 2009 refresh brought a more pronounced, F1-inspired front bumper design mimicking the Mercedes-McLaren SLR, trapezoidal exhaust tips, and darker tail lights

This, post-facelift example is presented in gleaming Iridium Silver with a contrasting leather trim. The bodywork is in excellent condition and the interior in superb condition, with almost no wear to the seats visible

The car has only covered 44,845 miles and benefits from a recent new engine supplied and fitted by Mercedes. The car had an audible piston slap, and Mercedes replaced the engine at their expense at 30,859 miles, so the new engine has covered less than 14,000 miles

We understand from our vendor that the car drives very well and the vario-roof operates faultlessly. He is a retired garage owner and has ensured that the car has followed its correct service routine, and the accompanying full-service history confirms it was last serviced in 2024 at 43,135 miles

Supplied with its current V5C, service invoices, older MOTs and a full Mercedes Book Pack

A great opportunity to purchase a smart, well-presented SLK roadster that is driving well and ready to be enjoyed
