Lady week I did a scan on an 05 or 06 SLK for a guy. Seats weren’t working which was apparently due to the car having been flooded downtown right before he bought it from some girl. (He saw it in the flood so that was a known quantity, $2250 which I thought was high, black/black, looked pretty n

Add one rusty E320 and you have a SLK320 at a nice price. But it probably needs top hydraulics and a bunch of other stuff. On Wed, July 1, 2020 11:05 pm, Kaleb Striplin via Mercedes wrote: > 2000 Mercedes SLK230 Hardtop Convertible Supercharged > > > https://springfield.craigslist.org/pts/d/buffal

Price isn’t bad, but it’s a pre-facelift, meaning it risks wiring harness and AC evaporator issues unless you know they’ve been dealt with. Dice roll. -D > On Mar 3, 2020, at 2:43 PM, Kaleb Striplin via Mercedes > wrote: > > https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/200977340975419/ > > >
