I think the time is nearing for the wifes 320SLK to be replaced with the more sleek (in our own opinion) SL500. The SLK has been an obsolutely brilliant car in everyway, but now time for that change. I know some of the ins and outs of the R230 series and what we should really go for. However, as this is always the case haven't the funds for the best of these models, so are looking at a 03 with 100,000mls. (have to leave funds available for maintainance and surprise malfunctions )
What to look for first with these earlier models would be greatly appreicated, so as not to look a complete novist when asking the first few questions. We will be limited for choice as we would like a blue colour with a cream interior.
We will be making our first enquiry Monday on this blue SL500.
It is to us a strange omen, as when we bought the SLK is had the exact same mileage, same age and exact same colour body as this one, except the SLK had the added black to the cream interior.
Many thanks in advance.
