Detailed maintenance in that time frame with significant expenditure on record
777 examples built by Mercedes
Believed to be one of just 20 in the UK
THE APPEAL
If there is a car that comes to symbolise the epitome of the German Autobahnstormer, it is the Mercedes-Benz CL65 AMG BiTurbo. With 600BHP on tap and packed with the latest technology, it was the ultimate Mercedes performance coupe of its generation.
Built between 2003 and 2005, the CL65 was based on the C215 chassis, and just 777 examples were sold worldwide. Today there are believed to be less than 20 on UK roads, which makes the 2005 Mercedes-Benz CL65 AMG BiTurbo on sale here with Car and Classic a very rare beast indeed.
This CL65 was ordered with a black interior which presents very well today
As is to be expected for a top of the line AMG of the day, it was fully loaded with a slew of options that hold their own even today
The leather seats, which have the desirable massage function in the front, and are also heated and cooled, are in good order with minimal signs of wear.
The extremely famous over engineered cup holder in the centre armrest has been replaced with a brand new one and functions as it should
The seller confirms all the switches, gauges and electrical items work as they should
The seller notes that the Satellite Navigation System has been updated to the latest DVD from Mercedes
The Alcantara head liner is in good clean condition
The rear window blind also goes up and down as it should as do the electric rear headrests, which pop down at the touch of a button
The seller adds that the Keyless Go, a smart key entry and startup system does work but is temperamental
This CL65 AMG BiTurbo was ordered new in Obsidian Black, which is a colour that really suits the muscular appearance of the V12 beast.
Today the original black paintwork has a lovely deep shine which looks very presentable. As it is a 17 year old car, it does have some marks, stone chips and light scratches which are documented in the photos below.
There are a number of spots of paint bubbling on the car, which are common areas on the W215 platform. There is some bubbling along the C pillar sections on the left and right side, on one corner of the roof by the sunroof, at the bottom of the B pillar on the drivers side. There is also some bubbling on the lower edges of both rear wheel arches and on the left corner below the passenger mirror. These are noted in the photos below.
There is a small dent in the right side chrome trim is present but it is easy to miss
There is a stone chip in the centre of the windscreen which is not noticeable at first
The CL65 is fitted with custom made MecXtreme3 19” wheels which have a set of new Michelin Pilot Sport 4 tyres. They really update the look of the car and give it a more aggressive stance.
The AMG alloys that came fitted with the car have recently been refurbished and are included in the sale, along with 2 spare tyres.
Custom made indoor car cover in silver and obsidian black colours as well as the Mercedes Benz logo to match included
6.0 litre V12 that produces 600BHP mated to a 5 speed automatic gearbox
The seller confirms that it drives as it should with phenomenal amounts of power and is incredibly smooth and comfortable on long journeys
The car has extensive service records including a fully stamped service book
Since acquiring the car in 2016 the current owner has had it serviced annually regardless of use and the most recent service was in August 2022
There are a considerable number of invoices on file with spends into the thousands, as the owner wanted to ensure the mighty V12 and its suspension were in tip tip order
This car was a labour of love for the current owner and the number of invoices and the expenditure shows the level of detail lavished on the cars mechanics. All works were carried out by Mercedes main dealers and specialists.
In March 2020 the underside was given an Extreme Rust Prevention Underbody Treatment by CSK Automotive with photos below detailing the work
The Mercedes-Benz CL65 AMG BiTurbo is a product of its era, one that will never be repeated again. It is a V12 battleship that was a technological tour de force which continues to impress 19 years after its launch. This example has clearly been cared for by the current owner who lavished attention on it regardless of cost. It is now ready to be enjoyed by its next custodian, who will get to experience the might of that 600BHP twin turbo V12.

Come funzionano le offerte massime
Il processo di offerta massima ti permette di fare offerte senza preoccupazioni.
Inserisci la tua offerta massima e il sistema farà offerte automaticamente per assicurarsi che tu sia il miglior offerente - fino all'ammontare da te stabilito come tetto massimo.
Anti-sniping
Car & Classic contrasta il fenomeno dello “sniping”, ovvero il fenomeno dei rilanci all'ultimo secondo per vincere l'asta.
Se viene fatta un'offerta nei 3 minuti prima della chiusura dell'asta, la scadenza di questa viene automaticamente estesa di 2 minuti per permettere agli altri offerenti di reagire e, se lo desiderano, di rilanciare.
Incrementi di offerta automatica
Se la sua offerta massima è uguale o inferiore al prezzo di riserva, la sua offerta massima sarà applicata per intero se lei è il miglior offerente.
Se siete il miglior offerente e fate un'offerta massima superiore a quella di riserva, la riserva verrà automaticamente inserita come prima offerta.
Una volta raggiunta la riserva, Car & Classic si assicurerà che tu sia il miglior offerente utilizzando solo gli incrementi di offerta indicati di seguito.
Vi terremo in testa fino alla vostra offerta massima O all'incremento più vicino alla vostra offerta massima, a condizione che la vostra offerta massima sia sufficiente a coprire il valore dell'incremento.

Superamento immediato dell'offerta
Quando piazzi un'offerta massima e questa viene immediatamente superata, questo significa che un altro offerente ha impostato una soglia di offerta massima superiore alla tua.
Puoi fare nuovamente un'offerta o impostare una soglia più alta di offerta massima e il nostro sistema rilancerà fino alla nuova soglia, cercando di portarti a essere il miglior offerente.
Offerte massime di pari ammontare
Quando ci sono due offerte massime di pari ammontare, quella impostata per prima è quella che viene considerata “migliore offerta”.
Pre-autorizzazione
Potremmo trattenere un piccolo importo di pre-autorizzazione sulla tua carta fino alla fine dell'asta, quando quest'ultimo verrà poi stornato. Se vinci, verrà prelevata una caparra che verrà detratta dal pagamento del prezzo di vendita per il veicolo e non comporta costi aggiuntivi per te.
Cosa sono le Offerte pre-asta?
Offerte pre-asta significa che avete la possibilità di fare offerte prima dell'inizio ufficiale dell'asta.
Verrà comunicato se si è il miglior offerente o meno all'inizio dell'asta.
Problema con l'offerta
Le offerte sono contrattualmente vincolanti. Per tutelare l'utente, sono previste alcune regole nel caso in cui si ritenga che sia stato digitato in modo errato. Si prega di controllare e modificare quanto inserito.
