2001 Mercedes-Benz SLK 230 review from North America
What things have gone wrong with the car?
1. Gad seven light bulbs run out.
- head light
- taillight
- dash
- interior light
- some of those burned out more than once.
Dealer replaced them in no time!
Couple of flat tires (I guess my fault, drive like crazy).
- A/C fan broke twice. (still under warranty, dealer replaced it).
Car is awesome, I love it so much. Many times I would be doing 80KM then all the sudden I am doing 140KM. Can't really feel it. Braking is excellent and the car is solid like a rock!
