There are a fair number of these around and they, on first glance look somewhat appealing as barges. But do they suffer from the piecrust build and flakey 'lektriks of their smaller modelled bretherin?

The thought of a CL500 or even Cl55 barge has a certain appeal as a disposable commodity, but are they more potential pain than they are worth?

DJC Rule 2 applies here:

Do not buy any Merc built between 2000-2004.

The "bargain CL" context has been extensively researched.

Get a bad one, and there are plenty about, and it'll be a ruinous moneypit.
