Description Pretty, lady-owned automatic supercharged face-lift example in appealing colour combination Dating from March 2001 this pretty R170 generation of SLK is a face-lift model, finished in a delightful hue of Blue and sits upon its original five-spoke 16” alloy wheels and red painted brake callipers.
This example is a 230 Kompressor model, which translates to there being a 2.3 litre M111.983 four-cylinder petrol engine with supercharger that develops 194Bhp and 280NM of torque driving the rear wheels via five-speed automatic/tiptronic transmission.
Performance as a result, in such a light, small car was surprisingly rapid, with the dash to sixty taking just 7.3 seconds.
Inside, we find black leather seats with electric adjustment for the driver, polished aluminium dash trim, dual zone climate control with AC, traction control, cruise control and after-market flip out in-car entertainment system with navigation.
We also note fitment of a useful wind deflector between the roll...
