Guest's review of Mercedes Benz SLK 320

“Good Points ”

★★★★☆

written by on 18/04/2011

Good Points



- Generally excellent and solid build quality (unlike newer R171 models)

- Great interior and exterior shape (honestly prefer it too R171 with awful nose and plastic interior)

- Great V6 engine - bit lazy but plenty of power on tap when required to leave most cars at the lights!

- Great sounding exhaust note (especially good with the roof down)

- Decent pace when required.



Bad Points



- It really isn't a sports car - the gearbox (mine is an auto) and steering are just not sharp enough - it's more a GT.

- The paint finish peels off parts of the console - this is the only build quality issue I have found

- It is beyond hopeless in snow - don't even think of taking it out in snow - you won't get home again!



Overall



This is one of the last models produced by Mercedes before their high build quality and engineering standards took a bit of a tumble. Its a great everyday GT car.
