Own a 2012 Fire opal red SLK which over the space of 2 weeks has developed sever top coat peeling and blistering. A friend of mine in the body repair business tells me that this is a well known issue with MB's in this colour and is due to micro bubbles in the red undercoat due to a possible technical issue with the paint. In the US there is now a class action law suit agains MB for covering up (sic) a know issue with this red paint. Any one have some guidelines about who to approach as regarding this issue. I am in the process of e-mailing MB UK with pictures of the issue. Clear from previous post that this is an issue for other owners and appears to predate the 2012 manufacture of my SLK.
