MB Enthusiast
(warning, long post)
So after 7 years of topless motoring I wanted a change....
Drove the CLK up on Wednesday morning and traded it in to MotorHouse of Shipley (worth a look at their showroom and stock list!) and drove away in an E Class Coupe.
The accessories from the CLK will be in the for sale sections shortly…….
I know you’ll all want pictures before words, so here they are
It’s a 350 CGI V6 petrol
Oh, and it’s the M276 engine
It was between this and another (a white one) but failed sales of my CLK, other interested parties failing credit checks on the white one and then a paltry PX offer on mine meant that one wasn’t meant to be.
The PX I got here on the CLK exceeded what I what I reduced it to on here (and then some!), and that didn't even include the accessories
The spec list is good (and long), with reversing camera the only one that this didn’t have which I would have liked, but it does have so much else to keep me entertained. I will list the entire spec as I may need ask what some of it is (I will RTFM this weekend though)

38,500 miles, on a 2012 reg car, the dealer had it given and interim service (it had FSH from Brooklands already) new pads all round and even sorted out an outstanding recall on a parking module. I would not hesitate to recommend MotorHouse, despite distance and even their postcode based on my experience.
A 250 mile down from Shipley on Wednesday gave me a good chance to check it over and so far so good.
Off the roundabouts on the A43 past Silverstone I was able to sample what 306 bhp is like.
And I like
It has thrown an EML for an exhaust temp sensor, but I dropped into MBS and they are dealing direct with the trader who provides his own warranty and has agreed Dave’s parts and labour price to replace.
Its washed, winters are on so all that is left is to update the Sat Nav maps (when I find out how and how much!)
