What does CL-IC mean?

[khughes18]

Hi, just found out my A160 Piccadilly is a CL-IC model, can anyone tell me what this means, and how it differs to the normal model.
Cheers guys.

I think "picadilly" is a dealer thing rather than anything from MB, or is it just the name of the dealer that sold it stuck on the back? Mercs normally come in classic, elegance and avantgarde model designations.
As for CL-IC - it means nothing to me - where is this written?

It appears from the above that the Piccadilly is an official MB model and is basically the same as the classic se with the addition of alloy wheels as standard.
As to the Cl-ic moniker...........
I dont think its has any bearing officially and it is simply pronounced "click".

It's a classic with the bum missing. When a BMW driver gets in it's a cl(ass)ic.

yup - abbreviation for "classic" (not enough characters on the computer)!
Well done Helen, I'd never have got that !
