Test drove a SLK 200 (auto) at the weekend - impressed quicker than I was expecting.
I have previously tested the SLK 350 but there was no prospect of getting one at that time price & waiting list. Things have improved for me. Very quick - unsure about the 7G box seemed to be a bit frantic compared to the 5 speed on the 200. However, it was last year when I tested it.
Dealer told me just received details re : SLK 280 - £30,950 (or £30,975) - 231 HP & 300 NM. 0 - 60 in 6.2 / 6.3.
Available for June build July delivery. Ordered it.
Just need to decide on auto or manual and spec including colour.
Will have to ask dealer to arrange for the a 350 so I can try the 7G again - they keep pushing the residual value aspect. No real chance of a 350 manual test though.
Anyway just wanted to tell people that 280 is close in UK & seemingly available quickly.
