Vehicle Details
AI Listing Summary
This 2003 Mercedes-Benz CLK 500 Elegance is a modern classic V8 coupe with only ~48,262 miles and an MOT until November 2024. It's been pampered by 3 previous owners and features a well-maintained black leather interior and a silver exterior, showing minimal signs of age despite its 20 years.
With a strong service history including 15 stamps and recent work on suspension, steering, and brakes, this CLK 500 offers a luxurious and powerful driving experience. It's been used as an occasional car and is now available due to the owner's reduced mobility, presenting a great opportunity for someone seeking a stylish and capable grand tourer.
Condition
8
The car is described as exceptionally presented with a sparkling condition that betrays its age. The paint has good lustre with only minor surface marks and a mild under-paint rash. The glass has minor lamination damage on the rear screen edges, and headlamp lenses show mild age signs. The interior is lavish and well-looked after with excellent seats and tidy carpets. Mechanically, the V8 engine and automatic transmission are reported to be smooth and responsive. While there are a few minor cosmetic blemishes like slight signs of age on inner rear arches and the aforementioned paint imperfections, the overall condition is excellent for a car of its age, requiring minimal reconditioning.

Performing as a luxury tourer with a hint of agility, there are not many other V8 coupes of this calibre, which offer subtlety and elegance.
A modern classic in every sense of the word, the CLK Mercedes comes with the guarantee of quality, sophistication and comfort.
Finished in silver with a black leather interior, this 2003 CLK 500 Elegance has been well and truly pampered by each o...
