Hi I have a 208 clk cab and you have to detach the hooks by using a handle on the header rail

My 230 convertible facelift 2000 In no particular order in 3 years Brake light switch - known issue wheel sensors - known issue door check strap and now window.. drivers side apparently some bonded metal has fallen off... waiting for new window glass from Germany - known issue rust in all...

I had my car advertised on there for sale 6months after I bought it, same pics that caught my eye...it is a scam ... either they steal to order or some financial scam, I thought I would go along with it and contacted Gumtree and the police... I thought they would steal mine! If anyone is...

2000 clk 230 and mine does exactly the same... 10 mins and all is well I wouldn't worry.

Hi Guys Just wanted to say the funniest stuff ever... never mind the songs, you are all great, haven't laughed so much in ages, but what about Ah HA oh no you don't...thats the way to do it. Bizarre punch and judy song anyone remember it?

How right you are to ask this. I have a 2000 yr clk 230 cab and as you can imagine in this weather it is the most fantastic driving experience. Notwithstanding that, I have owned this car and (touching wood) ! for nearly 2 years and despite serious damage last xmas from a very large pothole...

Hi I can speak with authority on Merc cab strength. (2000 230clk cab). I hit a pot hole on Dec 31st 2011, did a great deal of damage to wheels suspension and steering... final bill was near £5000 (all paid for by a water company), car following me was a little Renault Clio which went into...

Hi I agree with post above, I too see many young drivers in all situations on the phone, clearly not in control of their car... and what about pedestrians too, either yapping or with headphones on. This needs much firmer action, I think they should be taught a lesson hopefully in their...

Hi I read this about an hour ago on Google and quite frankly I am still reeling with shock. I thought I had seen everything despicable one human could do to another but this has left me utterly speechless. These were not the actions of a human being or indeed animal and life is too good a...

Hi I have a clk cab and yes you do need to push roof up a little at the beginning, so it is clear of the header rail. You just push it up on it's first fold. This is normal, it tells you to do so in the owners manual. Ian

I have 230 cab and get late 20's to early 30's generally. Have seen 42 plus on a long motorway run on cruise at 70mph. Hope this helps

How strange, I had (what passes for a smile with me) on the way to work this morning... CLK cabrio with the roof down, they really are all year round fun! Last time I smiled like that I had a Rover Sterling Coupe! Don't laugh one of the most underated cars Rover ever made.

Hi bhav Welcome to the 4 cylinder Merc engine. Unless there are signs of engine distress, the obvious things like blowing exhaust, using oil, water or heavy fuel consumpsion, warning on the dash etc etc then this is possibly a normal situation. Mine is the same. The computers enrichen...

Hi A very good question. There are a number of reasons why the CLK (208) could become a classic, but the most important reason is the styling. Maybe I am biased but I do think they are an extremely good looking car... esp the cab. They are still practical yet have avoided some of Mercedes...

Hi SilverSaloon, Yes... I went on line and I have checked , dog that I am, and last tax was MAY 10, so reported via web site a couple of weeks ago. Still no action. They estimate 2 million cars are untaxed, imagine the revenue and the roads being clearer, but still there is this view by...

Hi all, We all know how expensive driving a car is. Now here is a dilemma. Do you report an un taxed car? I have an old Escort parked near me in a public car park and I go mental every time I see the tax disc. Expired May 2010! The other day, the female driver arrived to park and...

Yes I have! Had a last few days in Deal. Went down last Thurs roof down, stooged around roof down, came back Sun, roof down... absolutely great! Very, very nice place... and in my CLK 230 Kom convertible got 42.3 mpg running very gently on cruise from Waltham Abbey on the way down, cruise...

Hi I used to work in car finance some time ago but things have not changed all that much. I think you should settle the finance. Then gain the full price for the car. You can ask the finance co to give you a letter of clearance and they will take it off the HPI register. There is no...

Hi You are like many many people here. One gets seduced into buying on the strength of Merc build etc etc, I can easily see why this happens. I made the same error on a clk cabriolet in November on a seemingly outstanding car. I actually was aware of rust issues having been a guest on here...

Mx5? don't want to shoot you down in flames... but like many Jap cars lacks a true character in the driving dept. Maybe an alfa spyder.... not the graduate shape, the 96 to 2006 style. That would be my choice
