2014 Mercedes Benz SLK250 Roadster Review and Test Drive by Bill - Auto Europa Naples 

It's mind-blowing that in just about a week this car will be a decade old. I'll bet you could still convince people who don't know anything about cars that this thing is brand new.

Got one of these 6 months ago (had a ‘98 SLK and loved it and literally drove it into the ground) but this 2014 was my dream car. Never thought I’d be able to pick it up so soon but, such is life, and man.... I love it.

I just know he'd be more joyous to drive an older one. You can't fool me, Bill!!!

What a beautiful style

I am in love with this car, planning to get a black one soon

Beautiful stone work on the driveway

Lov the car . A pleasure to drive.

I’ve got one and it’s truly superb … smile every time I drive it . And the windows coming up when lowering the roof is actually a good thing , stop whinging over nothing

Great review

Great video!

I have this one is awesome

I completely admit that car is beautiful, almost jewel-like. However as someone who works on their own car I am afraid of the R172. I bought my 2nd R171 this year. An SLK55 AMG with only 21K-miles on it. I have a lot of experience with 2000s-era Mercedes. I know the good ones & the ones to avoid. The R171 is the last SLK (AMG) which is still simple enough for someone like me to do all my own maintenance on. Its M113 engine is one of the best (power AND reliability) Mercedes ever made. The R172 AMG with the new M152 engine is so complicated (direct injection, start/stop system, cylinder deactivation, generator management) you'd need to buy diagnostic equipment that's not even close to being affordable.

"Everything is all fun and games till' they come at ya". Bill you rock! :)

You can close the roof up to 25 MPH

Any chance you still have it?

So agree about the windows comin up automatically when roof goes down - with no options to disable it. It's annoying

Is this car still available, I need one like this

Where is Mary Ann?

i was thinking about buying a 2015 slk250 with about 30-40k miles, do you it'll still have a good longevity

Hey Bill! Great job with the videos. Let me help you out with that remote smart key on the roadster.....I have one myself. So you don't like the windows up after the top comes down? simply "hit and hold" again on the smart key fob. Problem solved! ……...And leave the damn ducks alone! Take care, D. Scott

It is not AMG package

Bumpities and flippity flips...lol

12:07 "Bastards!"

How's the reliability on this? Probably not as good as the c class huh?

Its a 2.1 litre. Not 1.8

El mejor coche que puede tener una mujer soltera 👌👌👌

Its not a Amg sport

damn, not the first,,

Scared by a duck - wuss

R171 looks 10x better IMHO
