Description
This lot will be auctioned via Iconic Auctioneers, The Classic Sale at the Warwickshire Event Centre on Saturday the 7th of December, Warwickshire Event Centre, CV31 1XN.
Positioned between the SLK-Class and the CL-Class, the CLK (Coupé Leicht Kurz) remained in production through two generations between 1996 and 2010
AMG’s take on the new model involved the insertion of their 5. 4-litre M113 V8 and body and suspension settings adjusted to handle the extra power
At the turn of the century, AMG was still very close to its tuner roots and the new engine was fitted with a forged crankshaft, pistons and rods. Offering 347bhp and massive torque, performance was impressive
The model is understood to have been only available for around 18 months during which we believe c. 400 were supplied to the UK
Dating from 2000 and finished in Brilliant Silver, this wonderful example has been maintained and cherished by its fastidious owner for almost 15 years
Still displaying just over 86, 000 miles, it flew through a recent MOT (no advisories) in August 2024
This rare right-hand drive AMG rocket-ship is being offered without Reserve
