Things to check when buying a cls

[television]

Indeed, just trivia, focus on what makes a car a real car. Brrrmm, Brrmm

Or a car where you can slip away into the night without being heard, the doors self close, the engine is silent.

My kids used to sit in their pedal cars going brrmm brrmm, it will pass

Starting with Distronic as option number 1.

They always fitted "Distronic Plus" into the S and CL class, this takes you down to a stop and back up again, though I think they have started now to offer in some other models.

I certainly hope it doesn't pass, I love feeling like a kid at Christmas every time I get into my car. Life is far too short for those who enjoy it

Malc, I think Distronic is an option in any model of Mercedes. I have seen loads of CLs with no Distronic option. They don't always come fitted with one except on the request of the owner. This CL 63 below for instance doesn't have distronic. They advertised it as pretty much loaded and no Distronic function.

See the OP's other thread 'Finance on a CLS' and you will understand his current stance.

All models do not have it,,,I answered a post a few weeks back where the guy was upset because it was not available.

Very odd for that one in the link and no distronic

Even in basic form my car cost some £40k more than the CLS 55 so I do feel just that little bit better off in my brmm brmm,

I am very pleased for you Malcolm and I'm sure many others will also congratulate you on your fine car! It is truly the crowning example of automotive excellence

So is the new CLS 55 and it gets rave reviews, as long as we both love our cars and they perform the way way we wish, then we can live happily ever after

I think one's life expectancy is somewhat shorter driving a 55K :twisted:

Never blame the car, its the driver, and we are one of the only species that has choice in our make up

Oh, my good heavens, I'm sounding like st4 now!! :Oops:

Just wait until you drive a 204 C220cdi estate. It does something to you, it gives you C class tourets....

It is lively, playful and cheap as chips to run. 46mpg driving into central glasgow today.

With winter tyres its ride is soft. Once on summer tyres I will charge about again. I love this car, its fabulous, it may well be the finest car money can buy:lol::lol::lol::lol::lol::lol::lol::lol::lol::lol::lol::lol:
