Hello Group!
After searching long and hard, I am about to purchase my first slk. It's a fully loaded 99 with 40K, and comes from an older couple (non-smokers) that used it as their weekend car. It's never been abused, and looks immaculate inside and out. They are also providing me with service receipts, manuals, ect. You can tell they loved this car!! The only problem is that maybe it's too old, and I should look for a 2000 or 2001. I have seen a few from dealers and priate owners, but none were as pristine as this one. I am buying it for $18,000 which seems to be a great deal considering the low milage and stunning condition. Others I have looked at are around the same price (or a bit more) with over double the miles. Can someone please give me some advice, or tell me of any problems with 99's. Thanks a lot!
Tom
