Technical Specifications

The first-generation Mercedes-Benz SLK (R170), introduced in 1996, revolutionized the compact roadster market thanks to its innovative electrically folding steel "Vario-Roof", combining the comfort of a coupé with the pleasure of open-top driving.

This example is powered by the naturally aspirated Mercedes-Benz M111 2.0-litre engine producing 100 kW (136 HP), widely appreciated for its durability, reliability and lower maintenance costs compared with the supercharged Kompressor versions.

This is not the Kompressor model but the rarer naturally aspirated 100 kW version, offering smooth power delivery and refined driving characteristics.

Main features include:

  • 2.0-litre DOHC 16-valve engine
  • 100 kW (136 HP)
  • Rear-wheel drive
  • Manual transmission
  • Independent suspension
  • Excellent chassis rigidity
  • Well-balanced weight distribution

Model History

The Mercedes-Benz SLK R170 is one of the most iconic Mercedes sports cars of the late 1990s.

The name SLK stands for the German words Sportlich, Leicht and Kurz (Sporty, Light and Compact).

The model achieved worldwide commercial success and marked Mercedes-Benz's return to the compact roadster segment.

Today, the R170 is regarded as one of the most desirable Mercedes youngtimers thanks to its timeless styling, excellent build quality and renowned mechanical reliability.

Rarity

The naturally aspirated 100 kW version is considerably less common than the SLK 200 Kompressor.

Collectors increasingly appreciate this variant for its simpler mechanical layout, excellent reliability and originality.

This particular example retains:

  • Original Italian registration plates
  • Complete original documentation
  • ASI Historic Certification
  • CRS officially recorded on the registration document
  • Fully documented service history

A highly desirable combination that is becoming increasingly difficult to find.
