What do you think of this CLS 500?

[PeterE320Cdi]

I am thinking about swapping my CLK 240 for a CLS 500 and this one is almost my perfect spec, I would prefer grey leather but can live with black.

Used Mercedes-benz Cls Saloon Cls500 4dr Tip Auto in Beccles, Suffolk | Beccles Car Centre

Anything you think it's missing?

It's well overpriced in my opinion, pretty basic spec for a 500 too. But if it's what you want it and it's almost perfect.... Go for it! It'll still be a nice car! Ideally try and find the 5.5 cls500 too, much better power plant

Thats really nice and fits my small spec list of black paint, sat nav, electric memory seats, all round parking sensors (may be standard) with either black or grey leather.

The £500 per year road tax puts me off the later ones slightly as it seems so unjustified.

As long as its pre April '06 then its cheaper VED.

They are 5.4 litre too.... not 5.5

Pre-23/03/06 if it happens to get down to that level...

Nice car, with a dealer margin. .. cheap tyres would put me off. The 500 came with most of that kit as std.
