The Mercedes-Benz CLK-Class is a mid-size, rear-wheel drive luxury coupe and, while it was based on the W202 and W203 platforms of the C-Class, some styling cues were closer to that of the E-Class. The CLK 320 Coupe was introduced in the 1997 model year, powered by a 3.2 litre, V6 engine with the convertible available from 2000. In late 1999 for the 2000 model year, a facelift was launched which incorporated, amongst others, a revised instrument cluster with a bigger multifunction display, steering wheel with controls for the multifunction display and radio, tiptronic automatic gearbox, revised bumpers and new side skirts and side-view mirror-mounted indicators.

This Elegance specification 320 CLK automatic with the desirable V6 engine, is offered unusually in red with a black leather interior and is in very good order throughout. At the time of cataloguing, the vendor reports that the only known issue with the car is that the roof won't fully retract. Having covered just over 69,000 miles and supplied with six stamps in the original service book (starting in 2001 at 11,741 miles through to 2010 at 65,019 miles) as well as a MoT test certificate valid through until April 2026 with no advisories. This car is a low mileage example. Sold without reserve and with a transferable private plate, good quality Teutonic engineering doesn't come in a more affordable package. Consigned by Will Penrose
