Launched earlier this year, the Mercedes-Benz SL Night Edition and SLK Grand Edition both feature a stylish interior with numerous exterior highlights. Good news for those looking for something special, is that Mercedes-Benz South Africa has announced the availability of these exclusive coupés locally.
“These exciting new additions to the model range will be offered in limited numbers. These roadsters will give sporty drivers, who have a preference for individuality, the opportunity of exclusivity,” says Eckart Mayer, Divisional Manager, Mercedes-Benz Cars.
The special ‘designo magno night black’ paint finish has been specially developed for the SL Night Edition. 19-inch AMG five-spoke light-alloy wheels in a two-tone, high-gloss finish, silver-painted front brake callipers with the Mercedes-Benz logo and darkened headlamps/tail lights accentuate the exclusivity of these special models. A badge on the front wings identifies the Night Edition.
Inside, the special SL features black nappa leather and shining chrome trim. The newly designed seats have arrow-shaped seams and silver-coloured contrasting features. The sports steering wheel, shift lever and roof lining are all in black. The trim strip of the draught-stop has a high-gloss finish, complemented by the silver-coloured vents of the AIRSCARF® system, which delivers warm air to the driver when the soft top is down in cooler temperatures.
The SLK Grand Edition also receives an exclusive ‘designo graphite’ paint finish. Other highlights include exclusive 18-inch light-alloy wheels with five triple spokes, silver-coloured fins on the bonnet, headlamps matching the paint finish and a third brake light.
The interior of the SLK Grand Edition also features newly designed seats that are upholstered in basalt grey nappa leather, with arrow-shaped seams and designo pearl leather on the side bolsters. Basalt grey nappa leather is also used for the door linings, with contrast provided by the designo pearl leather armrests. Colour-coordinated trim in designo pearl leather – with the embossed Grand Edition emblem above the glove compartment – rounds off the interior.
