This 2005 Mercedes-Benz SLK 350 (R171) is a beautifully presented example of Mercedes-Benz’s compact V6 roadster, finished in Obsidian Black Metallic (197U) and paired with the rare Tobacco Brown Semi-Aniline Nappa leather interior (844A)—a highly unusual and desirable colour combination seldom seen on Australian-delivered cars.
Remarkably, the car has had just two owners from new over the past 21 years, and has clearly been carefully maintained throughout its life.
Delivered new by Worrells Mercedes-Benz of Toorak, Victoria, this SLK has travelled just 80,450 kilometres from new and is accompanied by two original remote keys, along with its complete factory books, manuals, and original logbook. The vehicle was serviced by the supplying dealer up to 45,000km (2009) before relocating to Sydney, where it has since been exclusively maintained by Silver Star Mercedes-Benz, a well-regarded independent Mercedes specialist. The most recent service was completed in 2025 at 80,355km.
Power is provided by the 3.5-litre naturally aspirated V6 engine, producing approximately 200kW, delivering smooth and responsive performance through the 7-speed automatic transmission to the rear wheels. The SLK 350 represents the sweet spot of the R171 range, offering a noticeable uplift in performance over the SLK 300 while retaining the refinement expected of the marque.

Well optioned, low-kilometre, and offered with an exceptional two-owner history, this SLK 350 represents an increasingly hard-to-find naturally aspirated V6 Mercedes roadster in original, unmolested condition—ideally suited to the enthusiast or collector seeking a properly maintained example with strong provenance.

An ideal choice for the enthusiast seeking originality, provenance and condition above all else.

The third and final generation of the highly successful Mercedes-Benz SLK series was the R172, launched in 2011 and continuing through until 2020. In 2016 it received a mid-life update and was renamed the SLC to bring it into line with Mercedes' new naming conventions. As with both previous SLK generations the R172's stand-out feature was its folding steel vario-roof, which enabled the car to turn from hard-top coupe to roadster at the press of a switch in a matter of seconds. The R172 was styled to echo the legendary SLS AMG which appeared around the same time, and picks up design cues from the big gullwing's nose, tail and interior layout. In Australia the R172 was initially offered in just two forms: the 4-cylinder SLK200 and the V6 SLK350.
This extremely well-kept R172 SLK350 BlueEFFICIENCY has covered just 128,401km since new, and is finished in stunning Galenite Silver metallic (967) with a black nappa leather interior. One of the first R172s to arrive in Australia, this SLK350 was delivered new by Mercedes-Benz of Sydney on 31 October 2011 and comes with a full log book history documenting servicing carried out exclusively by Mercedes-Benz dealers throughout its life - the selling dealer initially, and then by Mercedes-Benz Castle Hill. The most recent service was completed by MB Castle Hill in April 2024 at 127,236km. Naturally, the car also comes complete with all of its original manuals, factory literature, and spare remote key. Standard features of the SLK350 include COMAND Online multi-media system comprising Bluetooth telephone and audio streaming connectivity, satellite navigation, CD changer and Linguatronic voice control; reversing camera; parking sensors front and rear; heated electric seats, plus electric steering column and mirrors, all with memory; Bi-Xenon Intelligent Light System headlights with dusk-sensing feature; dual-zone Thermotronic climate control system; AIRSCARF neck-level heating system in both seats; cruise control and speed limiter; ambient interior lighting in solar red; a leather steering wheel with gearshift paddles; brushed aluminium trim; Electronic Stability Program (ESP); ASR traction control; PRE-SAFE accident anticipatory system; six airbags and more. In addition, this particular SLK350 was factory-optioned with the AMG Sports Pack which added AMG body styling, 18-inch 5-spoke AMG alloy wheels, lowered sports suspension, upgraded braking system, sports seats in nappa leather with red stitching on seats and interior trim, sports steering wheel with perforated leather grips, AMG floor mats, sports pedals and "chequered flag" finish to the instrument cluster centres. It also features the panoramic vario-roof option, which provides a tinted transparent section in the steel roof to provide the open-air feeling even in hard-top coupe mode. The SLK350 is powered by the M276 3.5L V6 direct-injection engine, which develops a hefty 225kW of power and 370Nm of torque. It drives through Mercedes' renowned 7G-Tronic 7-speed automatic transmission to the rear wheels in the classic sports car tradition and can sprint from rest to 100km/h in a phenomenal 5.6 seconds. The R172 series was the very last of the SLK line, and is rapidly becoming sought-after for its timeless good looks and superb driveability. This rare 6-cylinder example with its low mileage and original excellent condition will please the most discerning Mercedes enthusiast or sports convertible buyer.
