Your opinion on buying CLK 200 (2009) A209

[DSM10000]

Another example is the 2003 Suzuki Ignis that my mate had to cough up 3 large for last year!

He’s the guy that’s got an immaculate Evo 2 Integrale and a 1982 Alfasud in the U.K. so you can imagine how he feels.

What makes the user car market so expensive?
Import taxes?

I think so.

We wanted to put our British registered W202 on Greek plates but there is a tax on that as well which was actually illegal at the time (EU rules). Hence the reason we bought the Dacia.

Good to know that Greece like almost every EU member state) follows its own rules!

The import tax was a percentage of its new price and it didn’t take into consideration the how old or what condition the car was in at the time of wanting to re-register it.

We didn't have to pay much if I was bringing a car from the UK until the New Year, but since then everyrhing changed and you's pay alot of money for customs and tax due to Brexit

 

[Smiley]

Have you considered a BMW E46 convertible instead? Better car than the CLK in my view. I'll get my coat.

Don't think the 220 is prone to this issue. Only the 200K. others may know better of course.

If only i could get my car to Cyprus

Cam chain replacement on Mercedes-Benz clk 220 coupe. Coming across conflicting reports. Mercedes-Benz advise these chains to be replaced around 150k miles and some dealer's saying, last the life of engine? This seems like a, hold your breath once you reache 151k it may last to 200k? No real definite answer. Engine on my prospective car is a OM646 .

When moving abroad to certain countries. Heard someone on radio this morning quote the cost of 25k to relocate her animals. Merc maybe cheaper

Ok.

Wonder if the OP bought the CLK with the stapled roof ?

I really like BMW’s of this era in terms of how they look and drive but to use as a daily runner now they are this old, pass!

Walk away OP,,,
plenty more and a new roof could be just the start of your paying out,,,
