    Good Points: Driving position is fantastic, fuel economy, I also have a SAAB 93 2lts and the SAAB drinks fuel compared to the Merc....
    Solid build, very well put together.


    Bad Points: Mine is a 1998 and like others the wheel arches are showing a little less resilience than the rest of the car, other than that, 'Bad Points...What Bad points'


    General comments: I did my apprenticeship as a motor mechanic in the early 80's, taught by real mechanics....and I since then have owned Vw's, Audi's, Saab's, Bm's and more than I can remember, but the Mercedes Benz CLK 320....well, even though it 's a bit older than I'm used to, what a car...Wont buy anything else now other than a Mercedes....But I love the styling of this one (208)...classic...I'll keep , restore and love this one....if ya can get one...Buy It!!!!

    Wheel arches - big problem. Try and find a good one! Reliable - so far (after 2 yrs). Problem with 'squell from front nearside wheel' don't know what problem is, nor does Mercedes, nor does anybody else or garage! Beware, wheel arches will rust - 'bigstyle!

    I was looking for ages for a Merc 320 or a BMW 535. I found mine in Feb 08. It's a 1998 model and had done 20K miles (genuine! with full service history). If you are interested in a 320 then you need to have a test drive. You will not be disappointed. Mine is the Elegance with all the extras.

    Extremely reliable, economical, fast and enjoyable. I would recommend anyone who's looking for an exciting coupe for around 15k shouldn't look any further than this.

    We weren't really looking for a Mercedes but when my wife and I saw this car with only 45k miles and in mint condition... we bought it. We've driven Jags to Maserati's and all types of sports cars and the CLK 320 is by far the best V6 engine I've ever driven. Gas mileage is great!
    We plan to buy another CLK 320 - TWINS!

    I'm very happy after 6 months and 8k miles. Effortless driving over long distances and capable of 35mpg without being a slouch.

    I can't wait to get into my Mercedes Benz CLK 320 car and drive. It fits me like a glove. I am a little too comfortable in it. I like the steering. I love the control of the engine. I love this car.

    Great stereo, speakers don't shake, the steering is very good, make sure everything is held down in your car before you take a wild turn!! I like the suspension, except it can get a little shaky at times.

    I looked at BMW 330Ci and CLK before choosing the Mercedes Benz CLK 320. It is a very good motor. Great styling and all you would expect of a coupe. Mine has 17 inch AMG wheels and sports suspension. This transforms the car from a softie to a much firmer handling car.

    The engine is strong and smooth. The autobox is a strong point. The tiptronic function is useful and allows greater control.

    The build quality has been a bit shonky of late, but the CLK seems to have escaped the worst of it. ...

    This is a very desirable car but once in ownership it has numerous irritating features and doesn't deliver a pleasure of ownership one would expect. After 12 months it has still not "grown on me" and it's not a car that you can ever feel at one with when driving.
    Poor brake and accelerator pedal relationship/offset, excessive accelerator pedal travel/response and deep seat squab result in leg cramp and lower back ache regardless of seat and steering wheel positioning (which is not adjustable ...

    Of all 2 door 4 seat 6cyl rear wheel drive cars made today, only the Porsche 911, BMW325Ci, and Ford Mustang V6 are lighterthan the Mercedes-Benz CLK 320. The Porsche is much more expensive and cramped inside and the others have less power and cache. The CLK has a very rigid body, good fuel economy and storage space. It is exceedingly well built and solid. But oh, that style: unique, sleek, classic, timeless. That style (and construction) is where it trumps the BMW330Ci. The CLK320 is also light ...
