Yes it does appear sold, have a look at this for a nice CL600, the wheels look very nice. http://www.freewheeler.co.uk/detail.php?id=237

To be truthful I would rather go for the face lift 03 car and even go down to the 500, the servicing cost are horendous. the price for a 03 500 is almost the same. Its hard to stop the rear wheels spinning on mine yet alone the 600.

Those wheels that blobcat mentions are nice, they are 2 or 3 piece and expensive, there are similar wheels on some C class cars but only 1 piece.

Not all that easy to clean and normaly on Ebay.
