i'm thinking about changing my CLK and saw this, got the juices flowing. Its got some serious miles and i just want to know if these are fragile after say 100k miles?

the price looks good but i'm not an expert on this, especially considering the colour?

any advise would be appreciated.

price reflects miles i would of thought.
fsh most important.
lots of motorway miles better than lots of short trips.
i think it lookes real nice.
best get a inspection though.
cheers.

Was PSM an option on 3.4 996s? I thought it was just traction control - maybe was by 2000.
High mileage and less popular colour is bringing price down - personally I love Speed Yellow.

I've had a few with over 100,000 miles on and they've all run fine. One was at 103k about 6 or 7 years ago, so imagine what that could've done by now! Under 100k & 9 years you can still get an OPC warranty anyway. IIRC there is no mileage limit for the car once covered, but it must be under 100k (maybe 125k?) at commencement.

The alloys on that one look seriously in need of re-furb (not unusual) but allow a few hundred quid for getting that done right.
