VAL: MB SLK 230K

#1

I dont want to offend the old dear[1] :

Good bits:
'98 SLK in the metallic wine red colour,
FMSH
45k.
Full Leather
Standard rims of the era, good tyres.
230K engine.

Bad Bits:
Manual Box.
It's in Cork, IRE.
Parking scuffs on bumper corners.
Standard rims of the era, fronts abit kerbed.
Supposed problem with folding roof fixed by MB, but I've not checked it.

So, whats it worth, and how much to import / re-register?

[1]- god mother, just wants something different and it to go to a good home.

I reckon it's worth 75 quid or thereabouts.

I had my roof down yesterday with the air scarf on.
Its quite useable as long as its not wet or really freezing.
