Mercedes have always been top of their game when it comes to making luxurious interiors with this particular interior being no exception.
The seats present themselves well and are in line with the vehicle’s age and milage. There are no marks that we could see, on any of the leather seats or veneer trim. Equally the door cards, carpet and trim which surround the cockpit look great with no rips or tears that we noticed.
Overall, the condition of the interior is looking very, very good for its age.
As far as we are aware all the buttons, switches and electronics within the vehicle are performing as they were intended.
THE EXTERIOR
- Beautiful brilliant silver metallic paintwork
- Bi-xenon headlights
- 18” AMG alloys look amazing
- Badges and chromework in great condition
- Sunroof
- Headlights starting to show age
The paintwork that this CL500 is finished in looks fantastic in the sunshine. There are of course, a few stone chips on the front end but nothing that is unexpected from a car of this age and mileage. The headlights could do with a polish to remove any discolouration that has occurred over the years.
Overall, the exterior bodywork of this Mercedes is in lovely condition.
The lightweight alloy wheels really complement the bodywork design with no very minor signs of degrading or curb marks on some of the wheels.

About Max Bids
The max bid process allows you to bid without any hassle.
Enter your maximum bid and we will then bid on your behalf to ensure you're the highest bidder - just enough to keep you in the lead and only up until your maximum.
Anti-sniping
Car & Classic prevent auction snipers from bidding in the last seconds to win an auction.
Auctions are extended by 3 minutes if anyone bids within the last 2 minutes to allow other bidders to react and counter-bid.
Auto-bidding increments
- If your maximum bid is equal to or below the reserve price, your maximum bid will be applied in full if you are the highest bidder.
- If you are the highest bidder and place a maximum bid above the reserve, we will automatically put in the reserve as your first bid.
-
- Once the reserve has been met, Car & Classic will make sure you are the highest bidder using only the bidding increments stated below.
- We will keep you in the lead up until your maximum bid OR the increment closest to your maximum bid, providing your maximum bid is enough to cover the increment value.
| Bid Amount | Increment |
|---|---|
| £0 to £9,999 | £100.00 |
| £10,000 to £49,999 | £250.00 |
| £50,000 to £99,999 | £500.00 |
| £100,000 + | £1,000.00 |
Automatically outbid immediately
When you place a max bid and are outbid immediately that means that another bidder has placed a max bid limit which is higher than yours.
You can bid again and we will use our automatic bid system to try and get you as the highest bidder.
Matching max bids
When there are two max bids of the same value, the one placed first remains the lead bidder.
Pre-authorisation
We may hold a pre-authorisation charge on your card until the end of the auction when the hold will be cancelled. If you win, we'll take a security deposit which counts towards the payment for the vehicle and isn't any extra cost to you.
What are pre-bids?
A pre-bid means you're able to place a bid before the official start of the auction.
You will be notified whether or not you are the highest bidder when the auction starts.
Problem with your bid
Bids are contractually binding. To help protect you, we have some rules in place if we think it's been mistyped. Please check and amend what you have entered.
