- Low mileage with full service history
- Long MOT and has just been serviced
The Appeal
The CLK gave Mercedes-Benz buyers even more choice when it came to selecting a svelte convertible. While the SL had the GT market in mind, the CLK was smaller, seated four and designed to be altogether more versatile.
When the firm let its AMG arm loose on the CLK the results were astonishing. Dropping the 6.2litre M156 V8 engine beneath the bonnet turned the handsome convertible into a 470bhp tarmac-chewer. Alongside the phenomenal performance was a very high specification, giving the car a distinct balance between luxury and performance that its rivals struggled to match.
The CLK63 is a rare car and this example is in particularly good condition. With low mileage and full service history it is very well preserved and in subtle Obsidian Black offers a stealthy treat to the lucky buyer.

Summary
The C209 coupe and A209 convertible CLK Mercedes introduced a beautiful shape that is considered one of Mercedes-Benz’s finest of recent years. The CLK63 pulled off the clever trick of adding considerably more power without losing the sense of serene luxury of these stylish cars.
This low mileage CLK63 is subtly finished in black on black and presents in very good condition. Clearly well maintained with full service history, it looks very tempting.
