Thanks but that one is a little steep plus I am not a fan of silver, nice car though.
Not sure I will bother with the black one. Called the guy and someone just answered the phone saying 'hello', and sounded half asleep I asked about the SL and he didn't have a clue what I was on about, thought...
Thanks guys, I actually don't like many of the original wheels on the SL other than the split rims. And surprisingly I REALLY like this one in black. I've always steered clear of an SL as the ABC woes scare me.
Is there a buyers guide around, or any tips? My last Merc was a CLK55 convertible...
Just wondered if a previous owner is on here or if anyone know this car?

Scratched my TVR itch and thinking of an...
Different colour that, forget the name but have seen it before :) Mines varicolour 4 which is more grey / bronze than blue :) Same designo interior though
Ha yeh it will be a bargain in a few more years!
Popped over to give The clk a wax and clean the roof today, breaks were super squidgy, lots of surface rust. Luckily private road just off the side of the driveway so went up and down working the brakes and then they started to bite and abs kick...
Yeh that is a beast and probably worth more than my cars combined...
The cars I normally buy have already taken the depreciation hit (other than the missus car which we bought new, but that was the first and last time, it’s only done 9k and in two years already lost over a quarter of its...
Still having second thoughts :P
have had some enquiries and offers around 8k.
i’m tempted to MOT it and use it as a daily toward spring, so thats another option.
Thanks guys.
I haven't moved it for a couple of months, although I have rocked it back and forth and started, the discs are going rusty so it needs a good run to shave off the surface rust on the discs! I don't have under cover storage for it since I have moved it from my house, so it is sat...
So it's done (sort of lol) I've listed my long term CLK55 cab for sale on the public internet!
Here's the add:

No this isn't a for sale add, I can add one in the for sale section anyway, it's more a make my mind up thread...
If you aren't familiar with...
I don’t think the clk55 will go up in value sadly :( At least not for a very long time. Mine I would say is the only clk55 convertible in this colour, never seen another mercedes in it in fact. I do wonder if I keep it up together if it will go up in value, but it has done 108k now and I like to...
Thats true ref the old mileage, my car has two discrepancies, but both due to being keyed incorrectly. Once my MOT station keyed in the mileage as 902k lol. I’ve been meaning to get them changed but no idea how to go about it.
The less than 100 miles per year for the past three don’t sound...
Thanks guys, some more food for thought, so if ABC does go, and the fluid leaks or something all of the pressure out of the struts go I guess then it's sat on the deck and can't be moved?
How do those 'lowering links' effect it? Does it put any extra strain on the system?
The description...
Thanks guys, this one seems to have had some money spent on it, mileage is a little higher than I would like though:

Hi Guys,
I STILL have the CLK55!
I am at a cross roads again, do I keep her or do I scratch that SL55 itch instead?
The thing is, I really don't want to buy an SL55 and be chasing ABC issues for years and sinking 1000's into it getting no where. So, any advice? Is it really that unreliable...
Hi Guys,
Well, today I got off of the phone from Ray @ West Tuning over at Thruxton race course.
We've got the CLK booked in for next Wednesday, Ray thinks it will be approx 5 hours in total between the rolling road, analysing and tweaking the car.
I'm pretty excited, nearly had a Carbon...
