@@AutoAuctionRebuildstaking a perfectly good car and destroying it because “no one tells me what to do!” Is one of the dumbest things I have ever heard.
Scrapping it feels like a tragedy but there's also a lot SLK owners in need of parts. There could be someone who has one with a working roof but a ton of mechanical problems or body damage. You never know. But if the roof is easily fixable, then definetly keep it going!
Yes Randy, please, see if adding fluid fixes the top, then see if there is actual interest from someone wanting to purchase this car to drive first, before selling it to be broken down and parted out.
That's a fun little Mercedes! It looks really nice! It can get out of its own way, for sure. No check engine lights. If you could get the top to function correctly and fix the glove box, I bet you could flip it for a few more bucks. Nice pick up Randy!
I suspect the roof problem is from the sensor on the right side latch of the trunk partition. If the sensor thinks the partition is not closed properly it will not let the roof operate. Could be a quick fix
Hi Randy. Those are not cameras monitoring you in the SLK, those are just lights. Open the door at night and take a look. The Driver Assist is monitoring your steering wheel movement and other things to decide if you might be drowsy.
NO NO NO, how could you even think of letting that fun little buggy get scrapped?! I can see if it was all banged up and had serious issues but it’s in beautiful shape. I’d be interested in watching you try to fix the top and see how much you could get for it then. Maybe put it on Bring a Trailer instead of Copart.
Hi Randy - Please don’t allow the SLK to be scrapped! I like and watch JR and I am not sure that he intends to scrap every car that he buys. He recently bought a Bentley that I don’t think he wants to scrap. I currently own a 2011 550 SL and the convertible top is the most expensive item to fix if it breaks. I would like you to try to fix the top on the SLK. Your SLK is very desirable color with a beautiful interior. It would be very popular in Naples Florida where I live. In fact, I will definitely bid on the car if you ultimately send it to Copart. I would be willing to pay $1K over what JR would offer to NOT see it scrapped.
Coming soon, Auto Auction Recycling! 😂 I'd hate to see it get broken down and at $10k I cant believe it would be profitable enough for JR, but what do I know. I'd try to fix the roof, maybe try to sell it, and if you don't get $11-12k or more, drive it to Kansas and help JR tear it down. Buy a car there and drive it back. Good luck with it Randy!
I find it ironic that you go into copart and find old cars to fix up because you hate to see them scrapped and then to turn around and scrap a perfectly good running car. It is your property and you should do what you want with it. The logic may not make sense, but it is RUclips content. I'm just glad they're not scrapping me for body parts. I'm 71 and they're almost wore out 😊
Randy you should fix the top and send it to auction it’s a beautiful car .Should be given a second chance there’s someone out there that would love it!😊
Don't scrap. It's worth more than 10 k. Fix roof and I'm sure someone would love to buy it and get many years of joy out of it. They were made for the autobond. Have a vw cc 2.0 turbo and it only starts to get going at 70 miles an hour great car for the highway.
Hey Randy, kudos and congratulations I see you just tipped over onto the 440,000 subscriber mark! Although I hope to be with you, when you tip over 1 million mark which I have no doubt you will being hands-down the best automotive channel on, RUclips! put me down with the comment before me for a hell no on scrapping that little car! That’s way too nice of a car for that! That’s a real cool little find you got there for the price!
Winning recipes of a nice Benz SLK250 is good enough for a spin....Randy did it again, an impressive tiny car. The top is malfunction, which should not be an issue...USD10k is worthy for your money...thanks Randy for sharing this SLK vblog with us....🎉😂
I’m 50/50 on it. If the engine and or transmission was bad, I’d be all for scrapping it. But at the same time it would be cool to see it disassembled and parted out.
Dude I love the 1.8 turbo they’re pretty get up and go and they sound like a UFO😂 I have a video on my channel from like 2021 where I did some slow speed pulls with my best friends dads 2014 C250 you can’t tell me it doesn’t sound awesome 😁 I didn’t know they made a SLK250 😮 GREAT PURCHASE RANDY!
As much as I like JR, please do not sell it to him, this is a beautiful little roadster, please just send it to auction or give it to Mike to repair the roof and cherish it 😢
Also you have to use use the special Mercedes fluid but I suspect it isn't the fluid but is a limit switch that needs to be replaced or adjusted. You should be to fix the top in a few hours just take you time and check all the switches. Check the manual and see how to manually put the top down and give it a shot.
Randy , just seen this video - DO NOT SELL IT FOR SCARPPING , there are so many people who would love ti give it attention on the roads as is and fix the roof , then you have a great car
Had a 2015 GLA 250 4Matic Edition 1 for 2 years. Beautiful car inside and out. Fun to drive and quick too. Hated how the radio worked and expensive to service. Had 3 speed sensors go out and a sunroof that stopped working. After a small front end collision the collision avoidance system would just throw an error and stop working multiple times. Had to go to Mercedes and get it recalibrated so much that we just sold it to Carmax.
I’ve had the SLK for 3 years it’s a very cool car very economical I bought it at 41k miles it’s now of 50k miles it’s an amazing car it’s my weekend car all I’ve done on it is oil change and brake pad
I can’t believe it took most of third gear just hit 60 mile an hour. It’s kind of slow man, but it does look nice. The handling is where it’s at with that car.
I would not sell this beautiful car Randy,too much life and very good condition,someone would love to baby this car on weekends,if i could i would for sure. Seems fun car and classy for the 10k. Have a good one my friend.
That's dumb to part out a car that runs and drives fix the top and sell it for $12,000 to $14,000 and bring a profit use those profits to fix the house in Indiana create passive income
I bet that the instructions on the aftermarket radio are in the glove box. Get that fixed too Randy, I think you'd make a profit on this one if you got the convertible roof working again and the glove box unstuck!! I bet you could put it in an auction and make 2-4 K on it.
Don't sell it to JR to part it out. He will regret changing his format and will change back sooner rather than later. Far more interest in seeing cars restored or repaired, not parting them out. There is zero entertainment value in what JR intends to do.
Would be great to see you wrench on the merc randy and find out and see if it is or isn't it the fluid that needs to be topped up on the convertible seen you doing one some time bac if I remember correctly could be wrong but do remember you doing something with a Merc convertible before tho, but I agree its a very good look car randy looks in good condition alsow!.. 💪💪👍👍👍👍🏴
I would keep it and fix the convertible top. Its probably one of the hydraulic cylinders leaking or one of the lines in the top. Not hard just time consuming
Randy, get rid of the Mercedes Roaster, I know you will sell it for a lot more you pay for it but the 2016 Cadillac got my vote, that Is a beautiful car. Very nice.
Randy....please do not scrap that car. It's too nice a car to destroy. Sell it to someone who's going to love it and give it the respect it deserves. Not to someone who's going to destroy a fine running automobile just for kicks. For God sake dont
DONT SELL IT TO THAT DUDE THAT WANTS TO DESTROY IT. I WILL BE EXTREMELY ANGRY WITH YOU . WILL NEVER SEE YOUR CHANNEL VIDEOS AGAIN
And for that reason alone I’m selling it to him. Nobody tells me what to do on my channel.
Commenting is one thing. Telling me what to do, threatening me, or giving me ultimatums is another.

That's why your cars will NEVER love you. @@cousinjohncarstuff4568
Don't let JRGO destroy that car.
It has many miles of fun and usefulness left in it. Please do not scrap it
Scraping the SLK would be a tragedy , it's such a cool car, and it deserves more life .
Yes yes yes for the rooftop fix video!!!
DON'T SCRAP THIS BEAUTY THIS CAR HAS A LOT LIFE LEFT IN IT DON'T YOU DARE LET THIS CAR GET SCRAPPED!
I agree 💯
Agreed, its a perfect car for someone out there that is a collector.
Hell no this car it too nice to be scrapped if I were you, I’ll drive it for a while then either keep it or sell it to Monkey Wrench Mike‼️
Please fix the top nice car buddy
Agreed 👍
Please don't scrape that car. It's so beautiful.
I would love to see a video on the repair on the convertible top

20:45 the Guy on the top right corner notices your filming lol 😂
Yes, I’m interested in seeing the top work and then convertible Mercedes
Yes Randy, please, see if adding fluid fixes the top, then see if there is actual interest from someone wanting to purchase this car to drive first, before selling it to be broken down and parted out.

It would give a warning message on the dash if that was the issue
Yep remember it was the same issue on the black e550 he bought a while ago. I bought that car from randy back last summer and it's still going great.
The neck vent feature is called Air Scarf
Hi Randy. Those are not cameras monitoring you in the SLK, those are just lights. Open the door at night and take a look. The Driver Assist is monitoring your steering wheel movement and other things to decide if you might be drowsy.
The thing that's plugged into the USB is CarPlay + Android Auto then a wireless adapter for it

Looks like a nice Benz for 10k! Love the red interior. Send the Benz to auction
I agree with you that car is beautiful and it deserves more love and affection don’t send it to JR Go no way in hell

Randy selling parts is 100% profit from the investment 150%-200% sometimes

Hey Randy. Love the car. Please fix the retractable roof and the glove box.. Don't sell to the scrapper.. This car needs to be driven
Don’t scrap such a nice car. It doesn’t deserve that death. You should do a video on the top repair. As a convertible owner myself I’d love to see it.
That’s a sweet looking Benz‼️
PANO Roof (panoramic)
No to selling a good car to JR, it would be sacrilege and yes to fixing the vario roof
I’m 50/50 on it. If the engine and or transmission was bad, I’d be all for scrapping it. But at the same time it would be cool to see it disassembled and parted out.
Please fix it and keep it Randy don’t destroy a nice little car like that. That car still has plenty of life left

Good morning Randy. The 2013 Mercedes SLK 250 AMG is a good looking car. Let's see if it runs and drives.
Please dont scrap this, its a nice car. It deserves to live in my opinion !

What would Monkey Wrench Mike do? Would he scrap it? I don’t think so.
Nooooo! Don't scrap it Randy! This is my FAVORITE Mercedes styled car! I have an older model SLK! 🙄🤕😭
Can't wait to see it scrapped. Then scrap a BMW..
Don’t scrap it instead he should give it to someone in need
The Mercedes is a beautiful car, please don't scrap it.
Aren't the parts to fix the roof expensive ??
If the van hasn’t sold yet cash buyer here I think it’s gone though didn’t see it in the last cad update sale video
I can’t believe it took most of third gear just hit 60 mile an hour. It’s kind of slow man, but it does look nice. The handling is where it’s at with that car.
been looking at a few of these on iaa and Copart and would love to see more content cause they make great personal use cars aka daily drivers.
Hey when 1 of 2 Pins broken from the trunk Cover. The Roof doesent works !?
Yes I would like to see you fix the convertible top on the Mercedes
Don't sell it to scrap but scrap it yourself!
Looks really nice. Would you do any mechanic works yourself? is it reliable enough to drive long term?
A MWM collaboration to fix the roof would help get vids for MWM.
Sometimes it feels like somebody's watching me...and I get no privacy 🎶
Never thought I would say this. With the two cars next to each other the Cadillacs white paint looks better more sparkly. Better quality paint job?
Such a nice Mercedes should be driven and not broken down into parts. It's too nice for that!!!
I would not sell this beautiful car Randy,too much life and very good condition,someone would love to baby this car on weekends,if i could i would for sure.
Seems fun car and classy for the 10k.
Have a good one my friend.
Randy that infotainment is aftermarket, it's an android infotainment you can buy! It looks really good though
That's dumb to part out a car that runs and drives fix the top and sell it for $12,000 to $14,000 and bring a profit use those profits to fix the house in Indiana create passive income
Check the truck cover switches, might save you from ripping stuff apart.
the rooftop fix video!!!
Did you bid on it, or just pay the asking listed price? Is it from copart?
That's what I'm talking about Mercedes Rocks
The Attention Assistant will eventually be mandatory for new models, at least in Germany. Don't know about the US, tho.
I bet that the instructions on the aftermarket radio are in the glove box. Get that fixed too Randy, I think you'd make a profit on this one if you got the convertible roof working again and the glove box unstuck!! I bet you could put it in an auction and make 2-4 K on it.
Fix the roof and get a quote from Carvana.

I take it there aren't roof catches by the windscreen you need to release?
John Ross scrapping that wrecked Mini made sense. Not this perfect functioning road-worthy roadster.
20:43 wth is that guy doing in the background? LOL
That radio is Mercedes own factory device. Those cables are connect usb-stick or other device. Cables connect to Mercedes MMU connector.
Yes. Randy, do a video on how to convertible roof.
Remember if possible to answer me if Cadillac ELX hibrid,could drive and run without use batteries.Thanks a lot
Would be great to see you wrench on the merc randy and find out and see if it is or isn't it the fluid that needs to be topped up on the convertible seen you doing one some time bac if I remember correctly could be wrong but do remember you doing something with a Merc convertible before tho, but I agree its a very good look car randy looks in good condition alsow!.. 💪💪👍👍👍👍🏴
YES MAN THANK YOU RANDY 🎉
I would like to see you fix that convertible roof.
I would keep it and fix the convertible top. Its probably one of the hydraulic cylinders leaking or one of the lines in the top. Not hard just time consuming
Sweet Ride Congratulations
You got a decent deal Randy 😎😎👍👍
I know this sounds weird, but what happened to the Regency Conversion Van?
Randy, get rid of the Mercedes Roaster, I know you will sell it for a lot more you pay for it but the 2016 Cadillac got my vote, that Is a beautiful car. Very nice.
Don't scrap it. MWM and Lola would look pretty good in this ride.
Fix the top and send to the auto spa. Then to auction.
How much do you want for the MB
I prefer the ELR. Since it looks much better.
I like your SLK but I like the ELR even more.
Randy if you send that car to be scrapped I will unsubscribe to your channel
Nice car Randy.
Randi your yard starts to slowly slowly look like a luxury dealer's yeard
Randy....please do not scrap that car. It's too nice a car to destroy. Sell it to someone who's going to love it and give it the respect it deserves. Not to someone who's going to destroy a fine running automobile just for kicks. For God sake dont
@20:43 uh oh. Let me just moonwalk outta his video! Hahahaha
