Hi there My name is Damian,aka Tazz666 I have owned my first mercedes for a few months now and I am loving driving a proper car, even though I have a few niggles that I am working through with her I love my W208 CLK320, Here she is as she stand at the minute,I hope you guys like her

Hello and welcome. She certainly is lovely.

Thankyou for the warm welcome guys,I have to thankyou for your kind comments,
At the moment she has the 18" alloys on,but I want to get a set of the original 17" amg wheels she came with, As I want to return her to OE looks,But that will be after christmas and new year,(unless someone wants to do a deal,lol)
When I bought her I never really thought about a Mercedes,But I am a convert to the Three pointed star,lol

Thats a lovely clean 208, dont even think of putting a clutch pedal in it! Welcome aboard I have a rather strange coupe now!

Thanks for the compliment,
And as to the manual gearbox it was just a wee thought, I dont think I could be bothered with all the hassle that would go along with it,lol

Pleased to hear it, my dear old mum has a 209 200K manual and I think it ruins a lovely car but I'am biased, only one of my current fleet of 5 mercs is manual and that is a 1994 410D camper!

I used to be dead against Automatics but I have a 300zxtt and it was my first auto and then I bought this,(and I am a sucker for v6 engines) and I have to admit the autobox in the merc is an amazing piece of kit,
My plans for the Merc, are simple but I hope that it will help make my Clk stand out a bit from every other silver clk around my area, I would like either the standard 17" Amg alloys that came with the car , Or a set of fan type mercedes alloys that I have seen,and I really like them, I have seen a pre-facelift fitted with the facelift clocks ,and I was wondering hat would be involved with that?
