The Appeal

Once the top of the CL range, the CL600 has almost all of the optional extras ticked from the factory. Under the bonnet, you’ll find a big V12 engine mated to a characteristic smooth, Mercedes like, automatic gearbox. 
This car has been looked after well from new, the condition only confirms this statement. Once you get in and experience the un-rivalled luxury, you’ll never want to drive any other car.

The History and Paperwork

  • Known to the current custodian since new, the history is fairly easy to trace 
  • The first owner acquires the car and has it registered under their company
  • It then gets registered in their name
  • This adds another owner to the V5, so although it shows as three owners overall you can discount one
  • After ten years of their ownership, it is time to move on and the car is sold to the previous owner
  • Once again, they own it for the next decade 
  • Over the past twenty years, the owners have cherished this car and made sure to keep the original Mercedes literature
  • Within the paperwork, you’ll find some lovely sales brochures and handbooks
  • There are also a few invoices 
  • The most recent from August of 2022 shows a new position sensor, two crank windows, a repair to the starter motor, and an aircon regas
  • There’s also an invoice from 2016 that shows a new condenser, a master cylinder, and the MOT 
  • The service history is also said to be very good as well 
  • Now it is time for you to write the next chapter in this car’s history

  • At the front, the headlights are nice and clear, as are the two lower fog lights
  • If you look hard enough you might find a few areas of blemishing, but don’t forget the car is 20 years old
  • One of the best parts of the exterior are the alloy wheels
  • One of the only optional extras for the CL600 these Turbine wheels are in good all-round condition 
  • Not only are they presented well, but they also look very nice too

The Mechanics 

  • This is the part where the CL600 starts to make even more sense

  • Sitting proudly up front is a lovely, soon to be extinct, V12 internal combustion engine 
  • It is said the service history for this vehicle is good, having always been looked after by the same technician 
  • Starting on the button every time the V12 purrs away quietly
