Mercedes SLK 2LOOK Edition

Mercedes-Benz has just announced UK pricing for the Mercedes-Benz SLK 2LOOK Edition.  Introduced in March at the Geneva Motor Show, the special edition will cost UK customers £31,235.

Only 150 units of the car will be brought to market, with each of the UK editions getting the 200 KOMPRESSOR.  The supercharged four-banger produces 184 horsepower, and a maximum 184 ft-lb of torque.  Unfortunately, the SLK 300 and SLK 350 Sports versions of the 2LOOK available in the EU will not be available in Britain.

Each unit comes in a choice of four colors, Calcite White, Mystic White, Black, or Obsedian Black Metallic.  The last choice is considered a normal "option," but the company referrs to Mystic White as a "special order", surely costing the customer a bundle.  Blackened headlamps give the 2LOOK a unique design, but the new 18-inch double-five spoke alloys come standard in either Chrome Shadow or Titanium Silver.  Look for the unique badging around the vehicle.

Inside, opposing black and white nappa leather comes with "contrasting topstitching," covering the armrest, door panels, and steering wheel.  Meanwhile, the Mystic white dash further contrasts against the black roofliner and floormats.  Everybody will stay comfortable thanks to the heated seats that also blow out heated air at the neck-level.  Take the top down, and the custom transparent wind deflector keeps things toasty even in winter.

In the end, purchasers of the Mercedes-Benz SLK 2LOOK will get over £2,395 in goodies.  This translates to a total discount of £605.

Mercedes-Benz gives SLK customers something 2LOOK forward to this summer

Mercedes-Benz is launching the SLK 2LOOK Edition just in time for summer. The striking special edition enhances the already stunning SLK Roadster with unique colour options inside and out, while increased standard equipment ensures driver and passenger alike have everything they could need for perfect drop-top driving this summer.

With only 150 cars available, the SLK 2LOOK offers exclusivity and is available in Calcite White or Black paint. For those who want to shimmer in the sun, Obsidian Black Metallic paint is available as an option, while designo Mystic White paint is available as a special order. Imposing 18" 5-twin spoke alloy wheels are standard on the special edition and there is a choice of two finishes, Titanium Silver or Chrome Shadow. The model is further differentiated by the black surrounds on the headlamps and the 2LOOK Edition badge on the wings.

Moving inside, the SLK 2LOOK features sports seats upholstered in sumptuous black and white designo nappa leather with contrasting topstitching. The multi-function steering wheel, centre armrest and door panels also feature the luxurious feel of the designo nappa leather which is carefully selected for quality by experienced Mercedes-Benz upholsterers who ensure top level craftsmanship and attention to detail. The stylish interior is further enhanced by the black roof lining, Mystic white dashboard trim and black velour floor mats with white edging and 2LOOK badges.

As well as looking good the SLK 2LOOK is also focused on driver and passenger comfort. AIRSCARF, the unique neck-level heating system is fitted as standard and acts like an invisible scarf to ensure occupants keep warm out on the open road. Heated seats and a transparent 2LOOK Edition wind deflector also ensure maximum comfort when driving with the roof down, making open top driving as feasible on a crisp winter's day as it is during the warm summer months.

The SLK 2LOOK will be powered by the popular 200 KOMPRESSOR engine and will be available on the road from £31,235.00. With the designo nappa leather and the host of other additional standard equipment on the SLK 2LOOK, customers will benefit from over £2395 of added value over the standard car. There are also attractive finance rates available on the 2LOOK and other SLK models from Mercedes-Benz retailers.

As with all Mercedes-Benz models the SLK 2LOOK comes with a 3-year unlimited mileage warranty as well as a unique Mercedes-Benz Roadside Assistance package comprising up to 30-years pan-European breakdown assistance.

I think this is perfect for the people who want more look than power(there's nothing wrong with that IMO, people have different preference/need)

This is a simply FABULOUS car!! I've driven one for a week - and it is superb. It's not a RACING sports car - but it does have oomph when you need it. The direct steering will do a lane change on the motorway in one tweak of the steering wheel and you can turn it fully around on a sixpence. If you want to (and can afford to) pay the higher Tax, Insurance, and running costs, go for a bigger engine!! I'm getting one of these next week - and just can't wait!! This is a luxury sports car more than a racer. Travel in true style and comfort - and top down in the summer. This is a sure head-turner and the performance is just fine for me (and I don't hang around). Audi TT is a better car? - don't think so!!...a colleague of mine is an AA Recovery guy - and he said Audi TT's often end up in one place - on the back of his truck!! Boot is rediculous on Audi TT - can just get my handbag in it. SLK has good boot size - even with top down. I can get a suitcase and other bits in the boot with the roof up!! I LOVE this SLK 2Look and the one I am getting is in the amazing Designo Mystic White.
