Hi,

I'm thinking of buying an R-171 SLK 55 AMG, but just want to check a couple of mundane points before I bother a garage for a test drive.

Firstly I'm just under 6ft, will there be enough headroom? Only asking as I didn't like a Mk.1 MX5 (similar dimensions to the SLK) when I test drove one ages ago and my eye level seemed to be aligned with the top of the windscreen surround which was a bit off-putting!

Also - do they get over speed bumps OK? There are loads near where I live

Many thanks!
