CLS 320 CDI 4DR TIP AUTO, Any owners or opinions on these?

[996 sps]

Looking at these in a fair bit of detail of late, I really like the look of them and was debating possibly purchasing one.

Has anyone drove one or know a lot about them? There is only 2 reviews on Autotrader, i'm looking at an 06-08 plate, anything i'd need to look out for?

Thanks in advance.

Hi all, first time in the Mercedes zone even though I've bought my Wife an ML and an SLK in the recent past.
I'm very happy to say I bought a CLS 320 CDI today and cant wait to collect her next Friday.
All IMPO but one of the best looking cars on the road.
As usual for me, I bought with the heart not the brain and only now decided to look at PH opinions and experiences.
Cant say I'm upset with what I have read here but your sparking my interest on the Brabus side of things (I can wait a while before I start asking questions).
For info its a 2008 with 39k miles and I paid 16k. I was considering a Jag XJR but the Merc styling is 21st century. (Oh yes and twice the mpg).

Cheers,
Tony.

Congratulations.

Well i'm still looking, literally went to Statstone Jag today in Milton Keynes to look at one but they were shut so will ring them tomorrow, out of interest how much does it cost to fill the tank, tyres and servicing costs?

I think they are a great looking car.
