Congratulations! I just got my 2013 SLK250 about a month ago, one previous owner, with 43,000 miles (sorry USA). I first try to determine if it needs any over due maintenance. I,was unsuccessful,in getting any previous mAintenance records, so I check all fluids. This was someone’s garage queen soi think it is pretty well maintained. I just bought oil and. A filter to do that first in case it needs it. Cheap insurance. The convertible top is a little sticky so I m checking the basic things first such as hydraulic fluid level and am trying to find out how to view that pump reservoir.. To be continued. Have fun with your car. They are easy and fun to drive. Jim
