I have a 2007 280 in black. I bought the Chinese aftermarket entertainment system with backup camera as an upgrade that matches the look of the old factory radio. All in about a $500 USD upgrade. People think my car is brand new and make offers to buy it.
4:52 sind die 2 Fächer in der Armlehne Serie? Mein Auto ist Baujahr 2008 und ich habe nur die große Klappe bemerkt. Leider ist es bei uns jetzt sehr kalt und ich habe keine Lust in die Garage zugehen um nach zuschauen. 😉
How do you take care about your roof? I have r171 too and the top is nosy as hell- it crackles and creaks. What can I do about it? I heard that vaseline could solve this problem. Second thing - can I open the top in the winter? Won't it break up?
I just ensure to operate it everyonce and a while. As with the creaky noise just enjoy its beautiful stereo. Hard tops are less prune to being damaged as compared to fabric. But as general rule of thumb always close the roof when parked for a long period of time
I use Krytox. It's a roof seal rubber care lubricant. It's available from VW in a 30ml bottle. Apply very sparingly as it goes a long way. NO MORE CREAKS!
Despite your best intentions, I imagine, you ramble too much, you beat around the bush and don't get to the point, to what matters, in short, you're boring, you should be more direct and not tell stories that are irrelevant. Who do you want to give you a: I like it?
Nice overview. I recently bought an SLK350 w a manual transmission. No buyer's remorse here!

One thing I love about your car : the color. It’s gorgeous! 😍
Little dislike: the absence of airscarf, but it’s perhaps useless where you live.
You are absolutely right. The color is great on this car. Looks deep and rich in contrast with the beige seats

The top compartment opens to either side.
Great video, you have good presenting ability and high quality English. 👍
No airscarf ?
interesting facts!! amazing video
Thank you 😁
What up bro? I’m 6’2. I used to have a Miata and I fit perfect. Think I’ll fit in this Mercedes?
I'm 6'1. I pull the seat forward in my SLK. A lot of legroom in this car.
@@toadroller I got the car bro. Ur right. I fit just fine.
@@915fubar Awesome! Good for you! It's fun to drive, that's for sure. I love having a Mercedes with a stick.
@@toadroller bro dam thing is peppy. The power band caught me off guard twice already. It’s a sweet ride. For sure!
Of more than 500 for sale around Europe, there are only a few red ones, all too beat or too expensive.
I disliked nothing about my 280. Now I’m looking for a 350.

@@darrencollins8546 I will try it. Vaseline didnt solve the problem - futhermore, my windows are dirty right now... This "krytox" comes with a spray?
It is called "cx-80" ? I checked it on the local web store, dont know if it is avaible in my country
Great 👌🏻👍🏻
Thank you my dear :)
Should have got the slk55
The SLK55 is such a beast. Although I still do believe that the v6 gives balanced power ratio with the weight and proportions of this car
@@thedrivertour6127 and manual gearbox ! (Impossible on 55)
