The question to ask is him to answer, but maybe I’m the only one who thinks so.

You can Mercedes say what you want, but a Mercedes is recognizable as a Mercedes. That is not always in the most pronounced designs (sometimes). Nevertheless, succeeding the Germans, there will almost always be in order, especially the larger models, a certain degree of stateliness and class.

The CL-class meets that description, but what concerns me, however, is only from the C215-generation (1999-2005). The C216 (driving test) which then came is also a treat for the eyes and about the S-class Coupe (driving test) today is the ruler in the land of luxury coupes we have already enough written.

The first CL, however, the C140 on the basis of the S-class W140, is still here but very little added. It may be a bit of a forgotten Mercedes because of the dubious proportions? It would just be a reason. This generation was from 1996 to 1999 sold in the Netherlands. The CL420 had a non sick starting price of about 118.000 euros, the most expensive CL600, you got even fewer than 185,000 euros.

You now know how I think of it, try me especially on other thoughts in the comments. In particular, Check also this Shooting Brake-trial of Zagato.
