Rare metallic green with off-white upholstery colour combination
Believed to have always been garaged
Largely complete service history with consistent mileage progression
Private registration plate included in the sale
The Appeal
These cars have aged so well. The W209 CLK Cabriolet is increasingly recognised as one of Mercedes-Benz's more elegant open-top designs, and many enthusiasts consider it a prettier proposition than the E-Class cabriolets that followed. This 2003 example is a particularly appealing find, finished in a rare metallic green with off-white upholstery, a striking combination that sets it apart from the more commonly seen examples.
Believed to have always been garaged, this unmodified CLK Cabriolet presents in a condition that reflects careful stewardship. The service history is largely complete, with consistent year-on-year mileage increases that tally with the car's overall condition. It was maintained by Mercedes until 2016, then by the same independent garage until 2023, before being looked after by CCM in Cranleigh. It comes with an MOT valid until January 2027 and the private registration plate included in the sale.image.png1.56 MB

This sale is subject to the Car & Classic Terms and Conditions. By bidding and/or making an offer, you also agree to the following:
✓ The seller is registered as a private seller which means consumer rights stemming from EU consumer protection law do not come into effect. However, you are still covered by Car & Classic’s own Terms and Conditions..
