Opis

The SLK R171 was a step up from the R170 with its newer and beefier power plants. It is not only slightly longer and wider, it also comes with an almost 50 percent increase in torsional rigidity with the top down. Its interior is more up market and with the SLK55 AMG it offered the first V8 in its class. This 210-page book was last updated in March 2017 and gives you all the facts about the R171. With it you will also receive as bonus one of the author's 23 Mercedes e-books as free pdf file. These are some of the topics covered:

a comprehensive buyer's guide will help you to find the car that suits you best

VIN and Data Card are explained in great detail

the book lists all R171 option codes, so you will see from the data card, whether all relevant options are still with your car

it talks about issues with some of the first six-cylinder engines

the different COMAND systems are described

potential problems with the vario roof are looked at and

it comes with over 170 mostly recent non-Daimler AG photos

The guide ends with a detailed list of the cars' technical specifications with acceleration graphs, paint options and the annual production history of each model.

Why is this book not available as hard cover? Even today with modern digital printing services available, books with many color photos are expensive to produce. This book comes with around 170 high quality photos, most of them in color, and would cost retail as hardcover version over US$ 70 (or the corresponding amount in or ), which the author finds excessive. That is why the choice to offer the more reasonable to produce soft cover option.

FREE BONUS DETAILS: Once you have bought this book, please contact the author through his website (inside the book) and stipulate, which free pdf file you want him to send to you. You will find a complete list of all published e-books at the end of this book.
