While that might be overstating the car's value just a tad, the fact is there is no shortage of gear on this sports car. Although you will have to fill the car with premium unleaded petrol, it offers reasonably good fuel efficiency, particularly for a performance car. While it is fair to say that the 'cockpit' of the SLK is compact, the cabin is pretty well sorted. The controls generally are well located and easy to use, although the audio switches are a little on the small side. Most people won't have any trouble getting into a comfortable driving position, but it would help if the steering wheel was height-adjustable.
