Brand new SLK owner, hello to all.

Hello everyone, I am Just about to buy a 2008 R171 and I am trying to source the Driver side fog light chrome ring without much success. The body kit is I belive second "variant" post face lift ! It looks exaclty like the one in the pic. I worked out it is the 2008 R171, but is it really called an S Concept here in the UK as this pic os from Crete? 10 spoke wheels, parking sensors, paddles, air scarf, Beige leather seats etc and all the rest is standard. Cheers.

Hello and welcome,

An excellent choice of car

Hi Bolbcat, I do hope so it has only done 68k miles and is immaculate. A few little bits I need to sort but nothing bad.

Remove the chrome ring from the other side if you can’t find one ?
Any one live nearby with an SLk

Welcome to the forum and I hope you enjoy your new SLK.

Might be worth doing some reading up about the M271 engine , specifically on cam chain/gears problems . A rattle noise for a few seconds on cold start can indicate the car has/is getting chain stretch issues .
