A rare opportunity to own a ULEZ-compliant 4.3L V8 Mercedes-Benz CLK 430 naturally aspirated producing 279bhp. This 2001 W208 Avantgarde offers classic styling, smooth V8 performance, and excellent long-distance comfort becoming increasingly hard to find in this condition and specification. It boasts the two tone Galaxy Blue and Orion Grey leather which is in great condition with only slight wear to driver's seat bolster. The rear seats look as good as new. Mechanically the engine is smooth yet robust with the bulletproof M113 engine. The car has full service history with mainly MB dealer and reputable independent MB specialists. Last serviced in 2025 and New MB Engine and Transmission mounts fitted in 2024, all work carried out by Godstone MB. Two new rear tyres fitted in 2024. AC works and is ice cold, overhauled in 2024. It is becoming increasingly hard to find a modern classic especially a V8 which is ULEZ Compliant that can be enjoyed in London. This one being the Cabriolet means it can be enjoyed with the roof down as well. Two new OEM front speakers fitted and an overhaul of the factory fitted Bose Amp and Subwoofer last year giving it that crisp sound. It also has the factory CD changer in the boot. Lastly this example has been cherished in its lifetime having being owned 22 years from new by the last owner. The body work is in excellent condition and not rusty like the other examples up for sale. Everything works as expected but please remember it's a 24 year old car so there are a few marks around the car to commensurate its age. Ready to be enjoyed this summer. 300 mile trip to the Lake District last week and it didn't miss a beat returning 30mpg on the motorway. Time wasters or low ball offers not tolerated. If you are genuinely interested, give me a call. 5495 ONO
