Hi, how bad is the rust as I see the paint is bubbling in places?

Thanks

Hi, Reading the documents the vehicle failed its' MOT last month. I take it any collection would need to be done by truck as it cannot be driven on a public road. Did you get a quote to fix the issues? Thanks

It failed on 29th May for a missing exhaust clamp but looks like that was fixed and MoT passed on 30th May. The tow advisories remained. My SLK55 had front suspension issues but reasonably cheap and easy to fix- the engine is a big lump and wears stuff out!

No link to the car other than I d love one!

Hi, has the car any service history plz?

[Steve Monckton]

Hi
Just for clarity. The car has passed it's MOT, is road-worthy, and free to be driven away by the winning bidder?
And from the looks - please confirm it has all the necessary service documents....?
I only live 20 miles away in Llantrisant so quite keen if/when the above confirmed.
Cheers
Steve

Thank you so m,uch for your interest

the seller has confirmed the car has a valid MOT (until May 2026) and is very road worthy and yes ready to be driven away by the winning bidder.

As stated the car has a large folder full of invoices for servicing and work carried out throughout the cars life.

Good luck with your bidding, please keep going, as the car will not sell unless the reserve is met ... keep going everyone
