That'll be the CLK DTM it's quite a bit different looking and uses the supercharged 55 engine. Very expensive and rare.

Engine puts out 507 bhp. Whatever it is it's way too much for the cold weather.. lol

I'm a big fan of the N/A engine in these cars, I think it must have been a c63 Black series I saw.

Very nice. If she's thinking of selling, I'd be interested!

I don't think we will be selling her ! As part of the family now and I would have no idea of the value for her in this day and age ! But she's worth a lot to us for sentimental reason and I dout we could replace her for anything more charismatic as they don't make them like they used to ! But if we change our minds I ll put a post up 😀

A little bit cheaper than majority of the last few pages, just picked up this 05 facelift W203 Coupe - sold my 02 TT coupe as the kids really didn't fit anymore, no idea what to get and this popped up at a local dealer as a px clearance. 130k, last serviced 500 miles ago, mot until Dec, 4x newish tyres and 3/4 tank of fuel - all for £1500. Surprisingly big inside and lots of leg room in the rear, feels more solid and planted than the TT did, although no where near as fast - a more refined driving experience perhaps. Few minor marks but no rust, wheels are a little kerbed but at this price I can't argue too much. Liking my return to MB ownership

Not quite as practical as the above, but more practical than my old a5 coupe!

Well done, that seems a lot of clean car for the money

Stunning car. I've been debating for weeks to go and look at this car. I test drove one and saw another. Both a bit rough. The one you've picked is where I should have looked. I'm currently doing the pre facelift vs facelift in my head. Enjoy!

Good weather today, got my 6,000 ml CLK Black out for a quick drive. It's a cross between a pissed off dragon and a very, VERY angry Lion... lol
Absolutely stunning and one on my lottery purchase list.

Wow, nice selection.

In NL there's the ongoing debat about who wins to be the best car: BMW or Mercedes?

Silly of course, but then... it's a discussion between boys and their toys.

To me a BMW is easier to drive fast and find the edges. A Merc is more creature comfort. At least until last 15 years or so... The 2.3/2.5-16 is a gem and no match for an E30 M3 but for a daily hack I'd choose the Star hands down.

At the weekend I decided to put the wheels from my A45 on the C63 as they'd been sat unsold for 3 months. Im more than happy with the results. No rubbing or fouling either.

I was following the thread on the AMG Lounge, wheels look great on the 63.
