2006 CLS for 3k

I've not viewed it, but he literally always has a silver CLS for sale :pac:

Duke O Smiley · 17-06-2020 12:23PM

Picked this up this morning

Its a long wheel base 730d. Spec is only ok, rear iDrive, rear blinds, heated seats front and back and - curiously - night vision. The main thing I am missing are comfort seats, which really transform an E65/66. Miles are relatively high at 220k but it drives sweet. Glides along on the small wheel/big tyre combo too. Its an original Irish car with only three owners

Nice one, looks nice

Another sub €4K W221, looks fairly respectable although a change of ownership on 6/6/20 would raise a few red flags. No history of it being a SPSV.

It's a weird one, but the mismatched reg's are singing to me.

The W221 are now getting into the range where I’d feel comfy taking a chance on one of them.

Duke O Smiley · 18-06-2020 02:10AM

CLS wheels under it

The silver one you posted the last day looked a gem. Nicer spec on the black one, and much nicer colour combo

Would definitely like to have one at some stage soon-ish

310k miles, it certainly earned its keep anyway.

I'd take that over the 7'er above.
Really like the cls. Pity about the color.

New set of registration plates and a €1750 price increase.

Mileage conveniently left out too!

The merc has just popped up on Facebook marketplace, Andrew Norman must have a split personality disorder lol.

20-06-2020 08:42PM

Can't see much interest with the mileage TBH at that price, or close to it.
Wonder is it still 310k

Yet another sub €4K W221

Looking very dog eared and not a straight panel on it. Meh

21-06-2020 09:44AM

Asking price is a tad over budget but petrol v8s are in short supply in here....

Lol, seen that myself. What are the chances of that!

Eric Cartman · 21-06-2020 06:44PM

if anyone happens across a petrol w221 in black with a cream interior and a few toys, before posting it here just throw me a PM :pac: , a few months staying out of the pub I'm cash ready for another barge and I just can't escape the 221s appeal.

I’m waiting for a cheap one needing bodywork, i’d like to spray it firetruck red and get facelift wheels and body kit for it.

ohh my... this does certainly add some options.

LillySV · 21-06-2020 09:33PM

Are the s 350s reliable machines ? What’s the torque like on em? I’d say they’re fairly heavy

Wish I hadn't looked at that advert now, it should have been posted with a disclaimer. Only saving grace is the skirts won't fit an LWB - at least that's what I'm telling myself.

Quite reliable for a modern diesel tbf.
Leaks from oil cooler are inevitable though .......... bit of a job to change them, there's updated seals though so once done with them should be ok going forward.

having looked into it extensively the w221 is the most reliably of the Celtic tiger/ post Celtic tiger barges in every flavour, it has its issues but reliability is ahead of most of the e65 variants and the A8 of the same era. The ls460 is the most reliable one but just not as plush as its German rival.

I Was VB · 22-06-2020 11:24AM

08 S320, exlimo even though the seller said it’s a ex taxi?

https://www.donedeal.ie/view/25144228

€3250.

ELM327 · 22-06-2020 11:47AM

You'd think he'd stick 12 months tax on her before selling, and before the new owner has to change ownership type to the more expensive tax!
