Mercedes Benz SLK 55 AMG (2005)

Kickdown's Take
by Moritz HelbichThis 2005 Mercedes-Benz SLK 55 AMG from the R171 series impresses with its rich-sounding 5.4-liter AMG V8 M113 engine and 360 PS, paired with a 7-speed automatic transmission. Finished in Obsidian Black Metallic with a black/red leather interior, it is accident-free and in well-maintained original condition with no known repainting, and has a verifiable mileage of 134,862 kilometers. AMG styling, 18-inch multi-spoke wheels, AIRSCARF, and Parktronic round out the features. A complete service history and a “youngtimer” rating of 2- underscore the well-maintained overall condition of this AMG roadster; with TÜV valid through July 2028, it’s ready to drive right away.

Questions and Comments
Halterzahl: 4 (laut Besitzer nur 2) wie ist das zu verstehen? Ohne bekannte Nachlackierung bei 469 Mikrometern Schichtstärke passt nicht zusammen. Kotflügel vorne Rechts dürfte auf jeden Fall einen Rempler gehabt haben. Hinten links als auch das Heck sind zumindest mal nachlackiert worden. Bei laut Besitzer nur 2 Haltern sollte das aber bekannt sein.
