Great looking car and I love those final edition alloys. :)

I really think that the remaining W208 CLK's are worth saving. I know many rust like 1970's Lancia's, but I love them.

Mine is a 320 Elegance - 1999 on a V plate and needs some rust repair too.
Been quoted around a grand for two new front wings, rear arches cut out and replaced and other rust patches on the doors, boot lid and bonnet leading edge.

I think it's worth doing as I've owned the car for 8 years now and will probably never sell it.

Sorry for my late reply, only just read your post. I had it done buy a chap who lives in Shelley near Huddersfield. He did it in his spare time which is why it took so long to complete. Thanks

Hi GlosRich,
Thanks for your interest, I think I'll look at putting them on next year. I'm taking it off the road at end of September. So probably get them done for April next year. Going to drive my Honda accord for the winter months, don't want to spoil it by driving it in winter. Cheers

Hi all, thought id resurrect this thread as I have the same car, in Brilliant Silver. Mine is the 320 model, its done a genuine 69,000 miles, very little corrosion, a little bit on the right front wing at the front, and a tiny bit around the boot lock. I annually treat the wheel arches to a clean out and kurust treatment to keep the dreaded tin worm at bay!

Mine has AMG wheels, not sure if they were on from standard, I believe not, but I like them! We have had it for 7 years now, I only recently found out that they only made 100 of these, I didn't know!

Here are some pictures.
