OK, I've now seen this car - actually, glad of an excuse to give it a run, the owner very obligingly brought it round to me!
He's an enthusiast who has consulted this forum in the past - he bought it as replacement for his beloved special edition SLK320 which got rear-ended and written off last year. A change of family circumstances has brought about the sale.
Well, I reckon it's a cracker - very clean & tidy inside and out, only a couple of very tiny marks to the body, virtually unmarked wheels, good tyres, plenty of tax & MOT, 3 careful owners, FSH. Has the usual small patch of rust by the boot latch (certainly not the worst I've seen) and a little peeling paint on one of the wiper arms but otherwise an obviously very well looked-after example.
Without wishing to spoil his chances at auction, I reckon an offer of £4.5k would buy it which would be a bit of a bargain because, for its age, mileage and condition, it should easily be worth a good deal more than the opening bid price.
If I didn't already have the SRT, I'd be straight in there - a really lovely car!
