Well got my SLK 230 today and I am sooo happy:D
It is an absolute dream to drive, and it certainly gets noticed!

The only thing that is wrong is one of the black side Jack hole covers is missing :( - are these easy to pick up from dealers? Other than that I am in Lurve ;) Pics to follow

Its so interesting that this is one of the few cars that can hold that colour and look very good, and only 6 or 7 in the country like it, so I was told by an owner with one the same colour

Its really good colour and so much better than yet another silver. Its a small young sporty car, bright colours are good.

You can go off people :(

silver good for big cars like SL's. A yellow one would be arrrrrgggghhh. But on an SLK its kinda "cool". Plus she'll be really visible out there ;)

There was a yellow C class at the Benz world meet last week end. I was there and saw it, it was horrible

too large and sedate a car for yellow. You may call me naff but someone has a yellow audi RS4 and it looks the dogs B******

Yellow on porka boxsters too is bad, despite my earlier rule, as you'll look like an out of work banker (or swap b for a w)

creamy yellow is ok, but the Porsche yellow is too wishy washy for me. There was a yellow Bentley for sale a few years back which sold for strong money to a guy due in part to its rarity no doubt.
