Mercedes CL63 First Drive Well worth a read http://www.carmagazine.co.uk/first_drive.php?sid=211&page=1 Seems they have nothing but praise for this car :bannana: Just need to go looking down the back of the sofa now for that spare £105k.....

After a year long love hate relationship (I loved the car but hated its breakdowns and depreciation) I have now gone all sensible and sold it today. I will be sad to see it go, as its a great piece of engineering, and such a fast car with so much power that almost nothing else can touch, and...

Had a run a few days ago with a Kleemann converted SLK55 K4 Kompressor, which is basically an SLK55 but with a supercharger bolted on to produce 540BHP in a little SLK! Boy was that thing quick!!! Accelerating from traffic lights to motorway speeds (on the slip road) there was pretty much...

Walking home, quiet evening when I hear a roar, some tyre chirrupping and some tw*t try and reach 100mph in a quiet 30mph road - the speed display read 83mph with a :( - at that speed I'd expect a different face! Watched the car go past - V12 OUO with a chavvy england flag sticker on the...

I tightened up a few jubilee clips on the turbo hoses this morning as they were a bit loose from the work when the new turbo was fitted, and thought i'd take a few pictures without the carbon fibre engine cover as most photos i've seen were with the cover on.

Having been driving around town for the last few weeks, I went to Derby the weekend and had two encounters, nothing special, but it was a good refresh of why a CL65 is lethal on the motorway :) Firstly a modified Subaru came up behind me in the outside lane, I slowly increased my speed of...

Here are a few shots of the CL doing what it does best at Bruntingthorpe, courtesy of Trackdemon (www.trackdemon.co.uk)

Black CL65 spotted in Virginia Water car park today, belong to anyone here ? :D :D ;) The car park was unusually full today, wonder why :p Took a few pics... http://tinyurl.com/d7dlh

As you can see traction is a bit of an issue in the '65, but once it gets rolling :D :rock: From about 60mph I left the 360 standing http://www.pistonheads.tv/clip639

Had an absolute ball at Bruntingthorpe yesterday, and had the chance to run the CL against some extreme machines. I think I done pretty well, for a 2.1 ton, auto barge against some of the more 'racier' cars. Best bit of the day was two staged races with a Ruf TurboR (the one on Fifth gear...

on now

I was fortunate enough to have ride in Maff's beast last night as a passenger i the front seat and I have to say that his car is AWSOME... :) :rock: Felt like I was sitting in a Being 747 when we were accelerating and there was no noise what so ever in the cabin... The car is absolutely...

:D :D :D Took the car up the car wash just now, and as I was waiting to pull out a Lamborghini Murcielago shoots past me. Would you beleive it, he takes the same turning as I do, which just happens to be a 3 mile straight road followed by some bends, followed by another 2 mile straight...

Went to pick the car up after they looked at the steering wheel buttons and door handle trim (got to take it back, awaiting parts) and they bring the car round to the front. Bloke gets out, hands me the keys as some woman in a Focus reverses out of a space, does a massive U turn and revereses...

Some Video's of the CL65: CL65 AMG Engine Start CL65 AMG Lazy boot closure from inside CL65 V12 pulling away, loud outside but VERY quiet inside! Plasic mesh replaced with proper metal chicken wire: Distronic nose cone 390mm Cross drilled and slotted brakes...

Pretty boring race really (never thought a few years ago i'd be racing a 360 with my foot on the brake to stop me hitting it), it looked like he pulled over when I passed him maybe he wanted to check the engine was still there! :p :bannana: :D

After this weekends trip to Bruntingthorpe i've now got the bug to beat 200mph down the runway, and try to leave some of those Porsche's behind :rolleyes: So, i've managed to find a CL65 Kleemann with 739bhp and 1300NM of torque currently up for sale in Manchester. The problem is...
