The SLK55 is the best car I've ever driven. I'm taking a 360 Modena for a spin this weekend though so I'm guessing that'll all change.

So, the SL 55 Supercharged V8 beats the naturally aspirated version of the V8 in the SLK 55 on track only by 0.3 of a second? Really? i'll take the SLK55!

I've pushed my SL55 pretty hard through the Sierra Nevada Mointains and up HWY 1 (North of San Francisco is so fun) and I've never had the roll bar self deploy. Guess I haven't been trying hard enough!

Slk 55 AMG one of the best cars i have driven

Who's going to track their SLK. Is it sporty? Yes. Is it fast in a straight line? Yes. Does it sound amazing? Absolutely. Great car

3:12 "If it doesn't pop up you're not trying hard enough muawhahahaha" ;)

Damn she is so cool! How she drives, laugh and the way she look at the camera at 3:22

2:55 LMAO to her reaction.

You mean like former Silverstone racing instructor Vicki Butler-Henderson?

Slk 55 is still today one of the best cars I’ve ever driven!!

Whys she bashing the slk... It's a killer car!

Love the SLK55 hope to get one in a few years after savings

When I read stupid mysogyn comments, I ask myself if some people actually know who is Vicky.....i think not!! If you think you're a better driver than her, go and beat her during every championship she's in!

If it doesn't pop up, you're not trying hard enough!!!! Love her commentating.

1.) You can turn the ESP off completely. 2.) I'm 6'1" with a 77" reach, and my elbows have never gotten in the way. lol Install a set of headers, reprogram the ECU, turn off the ESP and race again.

In the future, please make more wilder adjustments to the fade-to-white, because my eyes did not quiet explode out of my head.

Clarkson had both of these cars

3:11 "If it doesn't pop up, you're not trying hard enough". That's good advice, ladies.

Both 2 great cars!

Awesome! That chick is a cool cat and that lookback @3:22 is priceless! More like her, please.

@PerzDVP Depends what model year you own. This video is old, Mercedes facelifted the car and improved it according to customers' feedback. Also, the all new SLK is better balanced, but overall I don't think it is a match for the Porsche Boxster.

I've heard the song when she is driving the SL55 around the track for a time.. But forgot the name.. Anyone know whats it called?

If you will be rough-housing a SL on any track you may as well manually extend the roll bar so that you are not distracted by the Self deployment.

She said the steering wheel was big. That's like having a midget review a building block and say "this thing is massive".lol

I lov the slk55 amg...and vicki

good video! what is the last song??

Time for a quick one , i like it ;)

id have the slk half the price but equal fun

You can change gear on the back of the steering wheel on the slk55 amg like the SL.. well you can on mine. Its a completely different beast in M mode tbh.

I like her.

Now, there should be a comparison with the current generations, the R231 SL 63 AMG vs the R172 SLK 55 AMG.

@aFlamingTaco the song is call no one knows by queens of the stone age =)

@athriaxo She was explaining the seats were too fat!

Ahhh love VBH!

I ♥ this woman. ☺

Put a supercharger in the SLK and the SL's price will be even more questionable.

Love VBH !

That laugh tho😂

wouldn't it be better if they use an actual driver to go round the track ?

My grand dad had one and we didn't even touch traction control because it was a tyre slayer

for .3 of a second and the difference in price its a no brainer slk all day long

Awesome driver and video!

I love Top Gear, but 5th Gear crew are so much better.

Nice

My dream Girl, and loves Mercs,, in love now

auto stick and auto are not the same thing, the slk has autostick. and traction control ;)

LoL. She's like if it doesn't pop up you're not trying hard enough. Then she says time for a quick one. Oh yeah!!!!

if you tipe in the secret mercedes code you can turn the TC totaly off

Vicki is CRAZY!!?!?!??!!!

lol I'm not sure whether I like her sound effects more or the cars...

2.50 enough said ;)

2:56 What happened?? :D

2018🙂

2:50 grrrrr me likie

It's surprising how many haters are here, bashing because Vicki is a lady and driving. Probably because of inferiority complex, 'cause she is driving those cars and driving them better than those ever will. Probably also you cannot make it pop up since a long time... you are not trying hard enough

1:48 - 1:51 OMG !

Nada a ver...se fizesse mais voltas...alternariam as lideranças...dirige muito bem essa garota! 🎉🎉🎉

(OMG what ^(*& was that)That what she said when I...... Anyway great driving beautiful. ^^

@bloobear1 uhm. no.

Should have used a C55 AMG. more fun than SL, Sl is better highway missile. C can do everything well.

2:50 what a Dev..

Is hard to every men recognize that she drives better than all men that comment in this video! (y)

Full of innuendo .!!!

she do spining wheel wrong

"ridiculously large 5.4 liter..." When will the Europeans learn!, 5.4 is not a large engine!....only the likes of the Italians would bother building a 3.5 liter V8....if I wanted that small an engine, I'd splice a pair of Superbike engines together...Oh wait, somebody already did that...

You can turn of the TC in a garage mode setting!

"More fun walking around the track than in an slk55". Dumbest comment I ever heard.

Why is there a small woman test driving two testes of a car?? I own the SLK 55 and my dad has the SL... The SLK IS NOT uncomfortable, your arms do not bump into anything (use the telescopic steering wheel genius... The steering moves up and down, front and back, till you find the perfect position). Both great cars but I actually prefer the SLK, in the hands of a good driver its actually faster, sharper in corners and a lot more fun to drive, that feel that you are connected to the car.

SLK!!!!!

if only more women enjoyed cars that much...

Good Girl

I am in love with Vicky Butler. I want to buy a Maserati Gran Cabrio just because she wants to hang out with the owner of one. Vicky, come to The States, we can talk about getting one for you.

I like her 2 she's lovely

Uhm ... she blames the car for her elbows knocking against the sides? How is that the cars fault? ^^

i haven't ever seen a girl drive that well

@fdhuff2006 i prefer 1:56 xD

if it pops up your driving style sux

360hp 5.4L V8 Now AMG puts more power in a 2.0L I4 Turbo haha Doesn't sound as good though

i like her! =)

She's coo :)

@Dermo1985 The Seats beeing fat has to do with her wrong driving position how? xD As long as she sits in the middle of the seat, it does not matter how fat that seat is.

If I could only find a girl friend like her. My life would be complete. ♥☺♥

She should train her belly :P

What a girl! :D

the SL is sexy! I don't like the SLK

her, sally from roadfly.com,courtnie hanson from power block tv,and there was one more she has a milf look to her.but there all hot gear head girls that would awesome to live with.no arguments just debates on car prices and fuel injection,and so on.

SLR>ALL OTHER BENZES SL55AMG > ALL OTHER BENZES

... twice as much.

2:56....lmao

It's always a good sign when a woman doesn't like to drive a car.

Was this produced by kids? All the gimmicky editing & what the music when we just want to hear the engines

This girl has me panting

theres no other explanation... this must be love at first sight! =) ... and i dont mean the mercedes!

😅😊😊

@aspersiosunil it's an emergency roll bar. ( bc without the roof on, when you flip, your head would be crushed.) rI had an older Mercedes sl and it even had one. i was pulling up to park on a small hill one time and it went off. it sounds like a gunshot in your ear. worst part is, you have to take it to a Mercedes dealership to have it reset. Soo, you look like and idiot riding around with a 1foot tall headrest till you get there LOL!!

wtf was that!!! lmao

Totally irrelevant comparison as you cannot drive like this on UK roads. Try driving the cars during rush hour in London, Manchester, Newcastle or the M25, that's the real driving experience for most people. MPG and servicing costs?

O.o

SL > SLGay

Haha Special-K.
