After spending years researching CLS55s but the time never being right to actually buy one, I've finally got my hands on one :D You may recognise it as a forum car, having previously been owned by two other users and so it's once again remained in the fold!

I collected it on Tuesday and had a 4-hour drive home from Crewe to Kent to get acquainted with it, took it for a blast yesterday to get more of a feel for it and then spent today giving it a thorough wash :)

It's now the third V8 on my fleet and the second supercharged one, and I am absolutely over the moon with it :D It's exactly what I wanted as my supercharged E92 M3 is absolutely ballistic and an intense drive and so I wanted something completely different to that, and the CLS55 is perfect :)

It needs a bit of TLC as there are a few things that need sorting on it and, as a serial modifier, I already have some upgrades planned as I am unable to leave any of my cars stock :D I am really looking forward to getting stuck into everything and really enjoying CLS55 ownership :)

Very nice.
Head to MSL Birmingham when its time to modify it.

Oh yes, I already know what I would like to have done :D Just wanting to take my time and space out my mods so as not to bankrupt myself within the first month of ownership, lol!
 
^ Let me guess.
77/83mm pulley, remap, bigger intercooler, secondary cat and resonator delete?:banana:

Yes! :D Although it already has the resonator delete but not the secondary cat delete - it's far too quiet for my tastes (my M3 is very loud :D) and so I want to get the cat delete done locally as it won't break the bank and will tide me over until I am ready to commit to the other mods :)
 
One of the best cars I ever had. Look after the blue baby ...

 
Very nice.

I know the car from this forum too actually and I've seen it was for sale for a while.

It's a nice colour combo and certainly not common at all.

However, more importantly, it looks like it has been looked after which is the best news.

Congrats!
 
Yes, i remember the first owner taking delivery ( C240Sport97 ) You have certainly got a great car,:thumb: much prefer the Original body style than all the Facelift versions :mad:
 
It’s one of my favourite colour combinations. Stunning car 👌🏻
 
Beautiful looking car and amazing colour. Congrats :)
