1998 Mercedes-Benz SLK 230 Kompressor for Sale in the Netherlands

This 1998 Mercedes-Benz SLK 230 Kompressor is a used car showing 12,657 km. It is equipped with an automatic transmission. The car is finished in Brilliant Silver Metallic with a Red and Black interior.

Sold new in Japan in 1998, this SLK 230 Kompressor belongs to the first R170 generation, named for being sporty, light and short, whose steel Vario roof turned a coupé into a roadster at the touch of a switch. Its first owner specified air conditioning, seat heating and the factory audio system.

Having barely been used, it looks close to new wherever one checks, the dealer says: switchgear, trim panels, upholstery and engine bay alike. The controls feel precise and the body tight. The red and black hide is pure late-1990s Mercedes-Benz and makes an unusual pairing with the silver paint.

The car is located in Brummen, Netherlands.

The Mercedes-Benz SLK 230 Kompressor uses the 2,295 cc M111 supercharged four-cylinder with four valves per cylinder, rated at 193 PS (142 kW) at 5,300 rpm and 280 Nm, 0 to 100 km/h in 7.3 seconds and 227 km/h with the automatic, with a five-speed manual or a five-speed automatic, driving the rear wheels.

FAQ

This Mercedes-Benz SLK 230 in the European market

Can this Mercedes-Benz be bought in the Netherlands and registered elsewhere in Europe?

The car is located in Brummen, Netherlands. The dealer has not stated whether the price is quoted gross, net of VAT for export, or under the margin scheme. Cross-border purchase is normal for this kind of car, but the documentation, the certificate of conformity, transport and the registration rules of the destination country all have to be settled with the selling dealer first.

How does the mileage of this Mercedes-Benz compare?

12,657 km recorded, against a median of 14,618 km across the Mercedes-Benz advertised in Europe in 2026. It is therefore among the lower-mileage cars currently listed. Service records and ownership details should be checked against the documents held by the selling dealer.

Who is selling this Mercedes-Benz SLK 230, and how does a purchase work?

Gallery Aaldering, a professional dealer in Brummen, Netherlands. LUSSO lists the car and passes enquiries to that dealer; the inspection, the negotiation, the invoice and the transfer of ownership all take place directly between the buyer and the dealer. LUSSO does not hold stock, take deposits or act as an intermediary in payment.

Can this Mercedes-Benz SLK 230 be inspected before purchase?

The car is at Brummen, Netherlands, and an inspection is arranged with the selling dealer. Buyers based in another country commonly appoint an independent inspector or a marque specialist rather than travel. Ask the dealer for the service record, the number of previous owners and any accident history, with supporting documents for the information stated in the listing.

Is this Mercedes-Benz SLK 230 still available?

LUSSO republishes what the selling dealer advertises, and a car in demand is sometimes reserved or sold before the dealer updates its own site. Confirm current availability with Gallery Aaldering before travelling or committing funds. An enquiry sent from this page reaches that dealer directly.

What is needed to register this car if it does not stay in the Netherlands?

A cross-border registration normally requires the vehicle registration document, the certificate of conformity or an equivalent type-approval record, the purchase invoice showing the VAT treatment, and proof that any tax due in the destination country has been settled. Temporary export plates and transport insurance are arranged either by the dealer or by the buyer. Requirements differ by country and should be confirmed with the selling dealer before payment.

Where can I see the wider Mercedes-Benz market?

LUSSO publishes a market overview for the SLK 230, covering current asking prices in Europe, availability by country, why prices differ, how VAT works on a cross-border purchase and what to compare between two cars.
