So did I! Just found the ones from 2008. None from 2009 on here. Few on V6clio forum gallery.
Seriously low then!

Couple of updated pictures.
The guys at BrakeCaliper refurbs made a bit of a hash of the reburb (6 weeks of wrong seals then they sent my rear calliper carrier to another customer and I was left with two Off Side Carriers. Useless. Finish on them was decent though; but wouldn't rush back...

Looked after considerably better than the owner!....That goes without saying!
They are cool cars! They get under your skin, without being particularly good in any area....
Re: 1M Akrapovic
Fair doo's! I like the SLK, I wouldn't have bought one otherwise. (Exhaust is modified for extra fruitiness; but the note fundamentally hasn't changed, just louder!)
Re: 1M Akrapovic
Yes.
Only a clown would buy the E93, so lets discount the Carbrio figures all together. The E92 M3 is 30kg lighter than the SLK...Not sure where you're getting your stats from also I'm certain you're carrying extra ballast over most. And the 0-62 and 0-100 on paper is quicker...
Re: 1M Akrapovic
Dream on. The SLK is slower than the M3 to 60, 100 and around the ring.
Tinny...Are you sure you're not talking about the E46 M3? Which indeed, was tinny.
Re: 1M Akrapovic
Course it does...Being engaged with the car starts from the moment you turn the key. It's the feeling through the wheel and the seat. For me that covers 30mph - 130mph. The M3 gives a lot more confidence at speed, believe me, I've driven both, hard!
It's not just the motor...
Re: 1M Akrapovic
Sideways isn't faster! You of all people should know that!
Wasn't talking about modified seats, the OEM seats in the 1M are lousy! Non-supportive. Then again the 1M was significantly cheaper than the E9X
About 100 in the last 3 years boyo! Calm yoursel.

Re: 1M Akrapovic
Completely disagree, I think it's one of the least special M cars of recent years...Looks squashed. Sounds naff, E46 pace, poverty interior, (seats especially) dull colours. It was a rushed job, but in fairness, I don't think they could have improved it. A 1 series M...Just...
