The Appeal
The 3rd generation of the CL Class was something special. The firm’s reputation for engineering and quality meant that the C215 had to be very, very good - not just in terms of being built well, but in terms of providing that luxury, that comfort, and an exhilarating performance that could thrill the discerning driver.
Thankfully, they pulled it out of the bag with no issue. The CL500 wasn't just a superb car, it was an aspirational car - and destined to become prized as one of the best of Mercedes-Benz' post-millennium output. Even today, they're highly clamoured for, and this one is no exception.
Accompanied by a vast paperwork file, and carrying all of those much-prized creature comforts, this V8-powered C215 is a superb piece of kit, and comes with an MOT valid all the way up until October 2025.
