The SLK AMG was tested in last nights "Fifth Gear" here in the UK. Vikki Butler Henderson hated it and said it would have been more interesting walking round the Anglesea circuit than driving the SLK AMG. Autocar said the Boxster made the SLK feel "pram like in comparison" and their test car took 7 metres longer to stop from 70mph than the Boxster, the contrived styling, unenviable reliability record....

And after my own experience of indifferent and incompetent servicing and after sales of BMW dealers, which on one occasion left my wife's BMW broken down miles from anywhere ONE DAY after a service, due to all the brake fluid having leaked away, the last straw after a long list of servicing SNAFU's I would never, ever, have one again.
