Welcome from Canada 🇨🇦 @irossfam2

It's to your benefit and is much easier for members to see your car (YEAR SLK "MODEL" and nothing else) details in Vehicle Details and where you live in "Location".

so the best method to update is:

click and follow the instructions FOUND HERE to update your profile.

If you have problems figuring out how to update your profile, just click

"REPORT" (3 buttons top right in this post)

and we'll help you out.

I live in Madison, WI in the US. I have owned my 2006 SLK55 for 12 years and now have 35,000 miles on the Iridium Silver roadster. I have acquired a 2008 SLK55 P30 car with 67,000 miles which we are mildly modifying for our soon to be driving 16 year old son for weekend car events.

Stopping in to say hello and hopefully get to know some of you.

Welcome, love the car especially that front lip and bonnet! Are they custom made?
