2007 '57' Mercedes SLK 55 AMG Black Series, approx £28,000 worth of AMG modifications from new

A stunning car which has covered just 26,000 miles from new and benefits from around £28,000 worth of modifications including the desirable £21,000 Black Series modifications fitted from new.

The original purchaser was an SLK55 fanatic and ordered 3 of these cars, one he left standard for frequent use, the other was left hand drive for use on the continent and this car was sent to AMG in Germany to be fitted with the AMG Black Series modifications to include adjustable suspension ( £3485 ), AMG limited slip differential ( £3580 ), AMG braking system with 6 pot 360mm calipers ( £1910 ), AMG Black Series wheels 8.5J x19 front and 9.5J x19 rear ( £5300 ) the wheel arches being rolled and flared to accommodate these wheels ( £1280 ). The gentleman also specified upgraded carpets and AMG leather carpet mats ( £1800 altogether ). At the same time the factory speed limiter was removed ! The gentleman also specified a folding roof and comfort seats and deleted the Black Series cast manifold which apparently is prone to cracking. With installation charges and other items the total expenditure was close to £28,000 in addition to the £56,000 purchase price of what was already a very high specification car. We are told this was a very well known car at the time and was registered "MR55 SLK".

Together with the vehicle we have an A4 binder containing the service records with prior servicing being recorded at 5715, 7603, 9248, 10157, 11623, 20633, 23024, 25171, 25993 and 26170 miles. Needless to say the car drives as it should, the engine raw, powerful and explosive, the steering sharp and the handling very responsive. The car has a firm, sporting ride and the brakes are simply astonishing, the driving experience is thrilling and accompanied by the most spectacular exhaust noise. The car has an AMG quad exit chromed sports exhaust system and the noise from the 5.4 litre Supercharged V8 is truly earth shattering - this is a very exciting car !

Finished in Obsidian black with beige leather comfort seats, the interior showing no signs of wear and no major marks on the bodywork, this is clearly a car which has been very well looked after and cherished from new.
