CLK55 admirer

[MB4013]

Howdy folks

New to this form so introductions to anyone who reads this.
My 1st ever car was a w114 and that is were my merc ownership ended until now.
I have always been a fan of the CLK and decided if I find a decent CLK55 convertible she will be mine.
Looking for advice, never bought a car out of service plan so quite hesitant.
Could anyone on the forum give me advice on what to look out for and guidance would be appreciated, have found this 5th gear video.

Welcome to the forum. You've chosen a fantastic car to buy. There a couple of very nice ones on ebay just now.
They are pretty bullet proof if looked after. Post 2005 they will have lots of little upgrades, the biggest being the facelift centre console. Some have the uprated 6 pot brakes etc.
2003 MERCEDES BENZ CLK55 AMG CONVERTIBLE “ IMMACULATE “ | eBay... Here's a good example. With old centre console but you could upgrade it like mine has been.
