To be fair it looks very nice.. I would get a full hpi done, and maybe get an independant merc specialist to look at it for you. They can normally do this for a small fee. As long as all mileages, services and mots tally up and there is no accident damage id say go for it! You only live once. With that engine it will be a stormer too! I recently picked up a 2013 Mercedes CLS350 CDI AMG SPORT with 40,000 miles. Best thing i ever did!

so been to see it - trade in offered for my Z4 was around £10,500 thats about what we buy any car offered....

The CL when put through we buy any car cameup at about £7,500.

Its a lovely car needs a wee bit of love on it - alloy wheel boot release nothing major. Believable explanation for the low mileage and car looks straight. Im going to need to see about insurance etc....

CLs aren't the most desirable of kit, so bear that in mind when you buy. That's why the value is low on WBAC.

well if you get it and need any bits, most of the parts from my CLS55 would work. pics are on my rat rod post. It's being broken and sold off as we speak.

Quite a lot of money: I've just picked up a '52 CL600 with 52k miles for a lot less.
