I bought it impulsively, because the wow effect from the folding roof itself unbuttoned my wallet =) In fact, we have a car with a m111 tractor engine and a corresponding automatic for a respectable age did not gi 2003 mercedes-benz slk-class ve me any problems. I propose to analyze the main questions that you will have if you decide to buy something like this: 1. "How to ride it in winter? It's cold!" In winter, operation is no worse than summer, the ground clearance is high (unless, of course, the suspension was lowered), the stove is clearly from older Mercedes and blows through a small salon once or twice. The metal roof also helps keep the heat in. The car gladly distributes corners even at 136 hp. and automatic, so driving through the snow-covered city will be incredibly pleasing.2. "Only two seats and where is the trunk?" Two seats are enough if you do not have children, the taxi driver option for your friends instantly disappears. The trunk is enough for an Auchan grocery trip for a week for 3 people, and if everything is laid out neatly, then the roof can be folded down. I managed to fit an office chair from IKEA (disassembled of course) into the trunk. You need to change shoes alone, because 2 wheels in the trunk, 2 on the passenger seat.3. "136ls is a vegetable! - yes, nothing like that. From w203 (200ls.) You leave for space thanks to a short box. Consumption is 12-13 liters in the city, oil does not eat, there is no compressor that can cause problems, tax too pleases.4 "Old, breaks, no spare parts" - no one will ever say that the car is 18 years old if you look at it. The design is quite modern. For 2 years of breakdowns: the cooling system pump leaked and the exhaust resonator burned out. There are many spare parts available, since they are all from w202. The main "BUT" is the body. If hit, then get ready for adventure.5. Sores. every car has bugs. Mine were treated simply, if you understand their essence (and this is a problem): a) the roof was leaking, treated by strengthening the seals with sealant b) the glass was sweating, the problem was in the recirculation damper. In general, the car is bright, interesting. You will get a lot of emotions. And when the time comes to part, you will suffer, because it is not expensive (a living sample is 350-400) and it is a pity to give it away. A large range of Mercedes allows you to bypass brand markups Low unprotected aluminum crankcase At some point, it became necessary to buy a car for his wife. Of the given parameters, I wanted a Mercedes, and my wife also wanted a convertible. There was a choice between 124, SL and SLK. At 124 there were some not adequate prices. On the SL, prices were no easier, but there were no small engines either. After viewing decided to stop at the atmospheric SLK with mechanics. Service. The main thing when operating a Mercedes is not to contact a company service. Freaks work there, who can't even do anything for good money. The coolest thing is that when you start complaining to the Deutschland, they play football in the best soviet traditions. Of the jambs was an arbitrary computer glitch. Cured in garages for 1500r. It turned out to be a standard disease of these motors (the same defect occurs in Lupato). The engine doesn't burn oil. They also changed the rail. Branded about 14000r and two weeks delivery time. They put it for 1200r, only I had to digest one mount for a beer. Well, the fuel pump for 4500r was recently changed - it began to make noise somehow not pontovo. Everything else is consumables. Somehow the c / s compressor failed, two tracks on the board rotted. It costs 20,000r, but the wife was outraged, so I had to solder the tracks myself. The third year nothing else rots away. Riding.
