Tax is 900 Plus

No tax or test on it but was checked by Mechanic + Diagnostics.

All it needs is a brake switch.

I got it for €540

Alot of car for €540 and checked out.

Was up for 800.....dont mind the tax but said about the test and the brake switch, will need tyres soon and its a 2.3.

He said lowest was 550 and I was cheeky as the fuel light was on

So 540 it was.

Delighted as I had a 2k at hand and more if needs be but why spend a few k when I can get a nice clk for a few hundred.

I miss my clk200 now. It was green, with cream leather and fully loaded.

Great car, its just I was too stupid and young for it. Now I would love to drive it again.

Fair play getting it for 540eu, well worth it.

The car was so cheap anyway, car/tax/nct, driving a clk €1600 for a year,
if road tax was cheap he would not have sold for that.

Enjoy. Nice to see it being used by someone who will appreciate it. I like the idea of a Grand Tourer myself.

SCOOP 64 · 12-01-2014 5:12pm

I live in Westmeath and work in Dublin, friends in Monaghan and Mayo so it's great to hit the motorway, stick on the cruise control and just sit back and enjoy.

Being a 2.3K the power is there anytime I need it.

Sweet. Never mad about the looks but that missing the point of the value and enjoyment your getting.
