A friend of mine has got a CLK in that colour.

Yellowstone, isn't it?

Is that a standard colour?

it might be worth having that toned down!

Interesting for a '99 car that it is pre-facelift.

You see a few registered on T plates - not surprising that this one sat around for a while!

There's an 'alleged' F1 spec SL60 AMG in yellow that always pops up for sale. If it had been sensibly priced I might have bought it... then again...

I quite like it! That colour is more common on SLKs I think.

love that - i had an slk in yellowstone and it was ace!

saw a t reg clk in yellow over Bradford way a few weeks back - it looked wrong!!! think the SL and slk carry the colour well

Looks like you got a lot of car for the money.

I'll reserve judgement on the colour until I see it in the flesh. I suspect its a lot more pleasing to the eye in the flesh.

>Tan what do you mean pre-facelift? It looks like a facelift model to me? Am I missing something?

I think he means that it's not a full facelift by the looks of things - it's the mid '90s semi-facelift and doesn't have the later type teardrop shaped mirrors etc as found on the very last R129 models.

Still - looks like a decent example/low mileage etc if the colour is your thing

There were two significant facelifts - '96, and '99. The second one did have some slight cosmetic changes (not as many as in '96), but the biggest change was the V8 engine ... going from 4 valves per cyl. with variable timing to a simpler 3 valves per cyl.

This car was obviously built just before the '99 facelift.

Not 100% sure until I might see it in the flesh.

Some cars suit yellow, The SLK with body kit actually looks ok, not sure a bigger / classier SL does??

Funny enough I saw a yellow Porsche 993 and a Boxster today walking to work.

Someone I knew had an immaculate Triumph TR6 in Mimosa Yellow (similar colour), and it looked stunning.
