EXTERIOR
This well-appointed and desirable CLK320 Elegance is finished in glorious Titanite Red Metallic, (Code 567). Strictly garaged from new by the one and only owner, the stunning paintwork simply gleams with a deep gloss shine and impeccable finish to really enhance the graceful lines of this genuine four seat tourer. Only the tiniest blemishes can be seen upon close inspection namely very light stone chips to the front and one mark to the bootlid, utterly insignificant. The beautifully made trim sections, glass lights and badges are pristine. An exterior showcasing enthusiast ownership and minimal usage to truly set this example well above the normal offerings. Typical Mercedes Benz indulgence.
INTERIOR
Luxury and opulence in abundance, a cabin space to overwhelm and delight! Trimmed in beautiful factory optional Quartz Leather, (Code 215), the upholstery is spotlessly clean and virtually flawless. The ergonomically designed seats are beautifully preserved and supremely comfortable. All burr walnut cappings and other leather trim sections are pristine, as is the Orion Grey headlining. Incredibly, the factory plastic coverings have been left on the door sills to preserve them in perfect order, cementing the fact that this car was owners’ true pride and joy. The functions and controls operate exactly as they should including the LCD display for the trip computer, clock and outside temperature which often fails. The separate LCD display for the gear shift indicator has some failed pixels. Inside the immaculate boot area is the original warning triangle, tool roll, jack and unopened first aid kit, and even factory build stickers, PDI marker sign offs and the dealer supplied circular wheel changing card have been preserved! Impeccable comfort to all occupants with Mercedes-Benz build quality assured.
ENGINE & TRANSMISSION
The Mercedes V-engine of 3199cc displacement produces 218bhp at 5700rpm and 310Nm torque at 4600rpm to achieve a top speed of 146mph and 0-62 in 8.3 seconds. The smooth power delivery is this engines strength. The exceptionally clean engine bay remains exactly as Mercedes Benz intended and displays factory plates, stickers and panel stampings that would amaze onlookers when the bonnet is lifted. The 5-speed automatic transmission with Speedtronic cruise control adapts to your driving manner to offer a superb and relaxed driving experience.
WHEELS, TYRES & BRAKES
Factory standard 16” five spoke style ‘B’ alloys wheels are in excellent order having been refurbished and five matching Pirelli P6000 205/55 R16 tyres have ample tread remaining. The anti-lock braking system with Brake Assist (BAS) offers absolute stopping power to install complete peace of mind.
