  • Hello everyone! Back in June, I took my second ever trip to Germany. During that trip, I managed to film some cars, one of which was this beautiful 1996 SLK 230 Kompressor that is owned by a friend of mine who let me film it. Enjoy!

    I'll never get sick of watching that roof work. I wish I could go for a top-down drive in mine right now but it's too cold to do that (even for me!).

      It may have been repainted. The r170s have major problems with peeling interior paint.

    Thanks for this mate. I'm looking at buy one as a sort of weekend car, and i was desperately looking for a video with the engine running correctly so i can gauge the sound as it should sound. Also, it a very in depth overview of an SLK in great condition so I can view the second hand cars now with a greater understanding of what's good and what's bad.
    I really appreciate this video. Thanks a lot.
    P.S.
    If you ever see this message perhaps you could let me know if you installed the daylights yourself? and what the process was?

    The S on the transmission switch means 'standard' not sport on a Benz.

    • @Savige96

      Wrong. It's "weich" (soft) and sport.

    • @gregghorner6534
      @gregghorner6534 8 лет назад +2

      Yep. the electrical system is problematic and the vario roof is very expensive to service if it fails.

    • @danmccarthy4700
      @danmccarthy4700 7 лет назад +1

      It is. I love mine to death but in the 4 years I've owned it, 2016 was the only one to not have some sort of weird, expensive electrical failure occur. My car has had a lot of issues, especially concerning the security system. And if there's ANY problem in the security system, your car will not start. Everything else on the thing- engine, transmission, etc. feels bombproof.

    Does anyone who has this car also has a multiple cd-changer in their glovesbox? I have that, but for some reason it's too small for a cd to fit, so I'm wondering how to use it... Could anyone help me out with that?

    • @Harvard.Unofficial
      @Harvard.Unofficial 5 лет назад

    • @Harvard.Unofficial
      @Harvard.Unofficial 5 лет назад +1

      maybe the original connections in trunk, maybe a d.i.y. job or take to local stereo shop to re hook up, my all original is 6 cd changer I think it would be impossible to fit in glovebox, if not working buy a used one at a junkyard or on ebay then have them install in trunk

    • @dubelgium
      @dubelgium 8 лет назад +2

      +Kevin Lofur this car is almost 20 years old. And yes, indeed, german premium cars have (had) many options which make them expensive. But keep in mind : when you live in a central european country where average temperature is mostly about 15° celsius (60 farenheit), the aircondition was considered as an option. And heated leather seats as well. You don't need a warmed up ass on a leather seat when you have mostly 45 Fahrenheit on winters... ;-) In fact, I have a slk 170since 18 years, and I don't give a damn about that shit. I need brakes and steerings that are doing well after 100.000 miles on country lanes...

    • @allaboutkalergi5012
      @allaboutkalergi5012 7 лет назад +1

      My understanding is that the SLK has 'Climate Control' as standard, with dual-zones - left and right side of the car. Just set one of the two temperature dials and the car does the rest. This particular car also features heated seats - a big plus for driving top down in cold weather.

    • @alexlovesmac
      @alexlovesmac  7 лет назад

      It doesn't have climate control.
