About my 57,000 mile 2001 - Black MB CLK320 Convertible
I purchased the car (via eBay) two years ago from a local online dealer. I wanted a reliable, low mile, four seater convertible for sunny spring and summer day trips. I've driven approximately 3K miles since then. The car has been garaged and NEVER been in wet weather. The car has NO dings, creases, body issues whatsoever. A Carfax report will confirm that this car has never been in an accident. It is straight and true. The roof is in A+ Condition. All glass is clear with no cracks/defects. Tires are in good shape. Looks like the battery is only 3 years old. Brakes wouldn't need service for probably 10K miles (depending on how you drive). Next major service is >11K miles away. The car is 12 years old, so naturally it has a few small scratches, imperfections etc.
The dealer didn't exactly represent the car accurately and I ended up doing the following work over the first couple of weeks of ownership.
1. Headlamps were badly fogged (notorious MB issue), so I had them cleaned - They are now crystal clear
2. Headlamps and Low Beam Bulbs were blown - I replaced with new halogen bulbs
3. Fog Light Glass was cracked - I replaced the glass and installed halogen bulbs
4. The side mirror controller was broken - I replaced with a new controller
5. The 6 CD player was broken - I had it repaired
6. The A/C wasn't working - I had it repaired
7. The tires were worn - I replaced all four, they are currently 8-32 with lots of tread depth
8. Replaced windshield wiper (The CLK only has one)
9. Fixed the windscreen washer motor
In addition to things that needed to be repaired, I also decided to,
1. Replace the stock front grille with an AMG style grille
2. Add AMG wheel inserts
3. Purchase a new 2001 MB CLK320 Owners Manual
4. Freshen up the wheels with a fresh coat of German Alloy Silver Paint (I will include a can and lacquer with the purchase)
A year or so ago,
The convertible cover stopped retracting, so I had a new motor added. Now working perfectly (I will include a full 1qt MB Hydraulic Fluid).
If I was keeping the car (I may if it doesn't sell), I would make the following repairs,
1. Repair the driver/passenger leather seats where the seams are splitting by the shoulder. ALL MB CLK and E Class seats go at some point in this area. IF you purchase the vehicle @ my low "Buy It Now" price, I'll take them to the dealer and get them done before you pick the car up. It is a $200 repair.
2. Have the alloy wheels professionally rehabbed or replace them with an AMG set (~$500).

France formally moves to ban Mercedes vehicles using contested refrigerant
Wed, 31 Jul 2013That didn't take long. Shortly after a French administrative court gave the French government a ten-day window to reconsider its ban on registrations of Mercedes-Benz A-, B- and CLA-Class cars using the prohibited R134a refrigerant, the government cited an EU directive to formalize banning the sale of the cars. The country's environmental ministry said that registrations "will remain forbidden in France as long as the company does not to conform to European regulations," meaning so long as they do not use the approved R1234yf refrigerant.
Daimler had won the administrative court decision by challenging France's application of a "safeguard" provision in which the EU allows a country to block sales of cars that would "seriously harm the environment." In spite of Daimler's victory, France has cited that very provision as basis for the continuation of the ban.
Daimler got permission from Germany's KBA federal motor authority to keep selling cars with the coolant banned by EU politicians, and is using that national permission as the right to sell the cars throughout Europe. Meanwhile, above that battle, German politicians are asking the EU to let Mercedes sell the cars in France while the KBA does more testing, at the same time as the EU is threatening Germany with repercussions if it doesn't bring the KBA and Daimler into line.
2014 Mercedes-Benz E63 AMG rumbles on stage 4Matic style
Mon, 14 Jan 2013Bruce Hornsby and his soothing piano skills helped introduce us to the 2014 Mercedes-Benz E-Class, but the monstrous E63 AMG sedan needed no entrance music as it rumbled on stage. The 550-horsepower (and up) sedan sat proudly alongside the rest of the redesigned E-Class on stage at the Detroit Auto Show, but stood miles apart in intention and execution.
In addition to a choice of sedan and wagon body styles, the E63 AMG will also offer buyers the choice of the standard 550 hp or an upgraded 577-hp S-Model; regardless of output, all 2014 E63 AMG models will come standard with the 4Matic all-wheel-drive system.
We already saw the E63 AMG's aggressive styling last week, but now we have a full assortment of live images for you to enjoy as well as the Mercedes-Benz press release, which is also posted below.
2015 Mercedes C-Class order guide leaked
Wed, 23 Apr 2014We may not have an official starting price for the 2015 Mercedes-Benz C-Class, but as of right now, we can tell you about all the options for the eagerly anticipated new luxury sedan.
Benz Report has the entire order guide for the C-Class, with breakdowns from package pricing to how many different colors, wheel designs and lighting configurations will be available when the new model hits dealers later this year. As we mentioned in our initial review of the C-Class, there will be a pair of engine options, with the now familiar 2.0-liter, turbocharged four-cylinder available in both rear- and all-wheel-drive configurations and a 3.0-liter, twin-turbocharged V6, which can be had in all-wheel drive, only.
From there, though, the available options are impressive. Much like it does on the current car, Mercedes is offering a pair of packages that sort of define the entire car. With the C300, buyers will have the choice of either a Sport or Luxury package in addition to the base trim, while C400 buyers are limited to the Sport model.
