For the past 30+ years, starting in high school, I was a Brit car guy. I've had an MGA, Cortina, Lotus and a Spitfire. They were all fun cars, some even very comptetitive, but all were tempermental. I finally got tired of spending more time under the car, than in it, so I sold the Spitfire. to replace it and become my daily driver, I found a beautiful 99 SLK and re-discovered what a fun drive could be. The car is responsive, nimble, comfortable in any weather, and reliable! Being a hard top convertable, I drive it year round and enjoy it every day. It's big enough to cruise the super highways, small enough to be fun on the twisty side roads, and who doesn't love a convertable in the sun shine.

Fun and easy to drive, cheap and easy to maintain. It has a easy to open top and has lots of space for luggage compared to other roadsters in it's class, even with the top down. I would and will buy another in the future.

i absolutly loved this car! bein a 2 seater converable ment i could get time on my own to enjoy the car. it handled so well and stuck to the road in every situation, acceration was fast and it doesn't seem like you doing the speeds you were, opps! good job the brakes were just as good as acceleration. nothing went wrong with this car, altough the service form mercs are expensive!!

Fab car, nearly wrote it off on the 1st day I took it out. Had it for 2 months then found out was pregnant!! Can't really get a baby seat in the back. Traded it in for another Merc but no where near as nice. Good whilst it lasted. Massive boot even when you have the top down, quite costly on the fuel but was an absolute dream to drive and leaves the cheapo boy racers standing anyday

i love the car, i drive it every day when its sunny! even if the temp outside is 45 degrees LOL as long as its sunny you'll see me cruising with the top down. the car not a Ferrari it wont accelerate in less the 4 sec or take the turns like a BMW M but its luxury's and sporty as a new Lexus and that all that matter's to me... for now you gotta admit, this car inst bad for a high school/college student LOL
