I love these things...
Now I have seen them for around 8.5K with FSH...
I am looking at the 2003 facelift version (less faults/no rust??? - Is that true? Or shall I get a 01/02 pre-facelift)
However how bad are these? OK I know about ABC is that the only big issue?
Looking on ECP etc most parts seem like they are a decent price.
Have seen one with LPG fitted, now that may be an idea too?
Currently running a 230K and get 20 around town and 30 on a run, I drive it quite hard so that's prob why so low.
Most of these are fully loaded with all options and look superb.
Talk me out of one, or tell me to go for it and what to look out for....
Costs me around £80 (60L) to tank the 230K and I get about 280-320 per tank.
What can I expect from the CL500.
Or shall I look at a W209 CLK320/320CDI/500
Any other ideas? Also love the CLS! However they cost double of the CL. (CLS320/320CDI/350/500)
Thoughts etc...
