*Re-listed due to a time waster. OPEN TO REALISTIC OFFERS. 2008 Mercedes-Benz CLK 280 AMG Sport – 3.0 V6 Petrol Auto – 164,978 miles MOT valid until January 2027 – one key available. This 2008 Mercedes-Benz CLK 280 3.0 V6 petrol has been in my family for the last 15 years, with me being its sole keeper and driver for virtually all of that time. It has been my daily driver throughout that period and has genuinely been a fantastic car. It currently sits at 164,978 miles, although this will increase very slightly as the car is still being used. A note regarding the number of keepers: the V5 may show the car as having had four keepers, including myself. This is because my father appears twice on the ownership history following a name change, before the car was eventually registered to me. In reality, I have personally driven and looked after this car on a daily basis for the last 15 years. Mechanical The car is powered by Mercedes’ 3.0 V6 petrol engine and is fitted with the automatic gearbox, including steering-wheel flappy paddles. It can be driven in normal automatic mode, Tiptronic mode or full manual mode. The engine pulls extremely well and sounds fantastic, and the gearbox operates smoothly. In the 15 years I’ve owned it, the car has never once let me down. It starts on the button every time and has always been a dependable daily driver. It has front and rear parking sensors with visual displays, all of which work correctly. They are genuinely excellent and are probably the best parking sensors I’ve personally used on any car. The suspension has been maintained and updated as required over the years. More recently, I had a suspension arm replaced, and the car now needs an alignment as a result. There is some squeaking from underneath the car which has become noticeable over the last six months, particularly when driving harder. The suspension itself is functioning properly, but given the mileage and age of the car, some of the bushes around the car will likely need replacing at some point. There is also a slight fan/whirring noise when the car is moving. I have had the engine and surrounding components inspected and nothing obvious was found. I cannot say with certainty what is causing the noise, but it does not currently affect the way the car drives or feels. Bodywork This is not a show car and it is not immaculate. It is an 18-year-old car with nearly 165,000 miles that has been used as a daily driver for many years. The bodywork has therefore seen better days, with various chips, scratches and marks from normal use. I have photographed these as honestly and clearly as possible. The four wheels were fully refurbished in July 2024 , and the bonnet was also fully resprayed at the same time . Both were carried out to address the wear that had accumulated over the years. There is some early rust around the boot opening and on the outer edges of the rear arches. It is not crusty or advanced, but it is beginning to show and is visible in the photographs. There is also a small mark on the roof. I’ve included photographs underneath the car as well, which I think show that it has held up remarkably well underneath considering its age and mileage. The front passenger fog light has a broken glass lens and the headlights would benefit from a polish. The driver’s-side wing mirror needs replacement glass at some point, as the tinted glass has started to discolour and deteriorate. The electric wing mirrors do not currently work. They haven’t worked for a number of years and, as I have always been the sole driver, it never really bothered me. The motors themselves operate, but I believe the plastic gearing inside the mirrors has worn, preventing them from positioning correctly or folding electrically. Interior The leather interior has held up remarkably well for its age and mileage and, with a proper valet, would present very nicely. There is some stitching coming apart around the driver’s seat bolster. This should be relatively straightforward to have repaired/restitched. History & paperwork I have tried to be as thorough and transparent as possible with this listing. I’ve included a large number of photographs showing the car from all angles, including the areas where there is wear or damage. I’ve also included additional photographs via the link below, along with a PDF containing scans of the invoices, receipts and other paperwork I have retained for the car over the years. If you have any questions at all, please don’t hesitate to ask. I’m more than happy to provide as much information as I can. If you’re local to me, I’m happy to drop the car off with you. In summary I know this is an 18-year-old Mercedes with 160,000+ miles on the clock, and I’m not trying to present it as something it isn’t. It isn’t immaculate and it isn’t a show car. It has some cosmetic faults and, as you’d expect from a car of this age and mileage, there are things that will need attention over time. Most importantly, I’ve owned and driven this car for the last 15 years. It has been a huge part of my life and has served me incredibly well as a daily driver. I’ve done my best to be completely open and honest about the car and its condition. I’m not here to hide anything or mislead anyone — I simply want to find it a new owner. Payment by bank transfer on collection or before. Unfortunately wouldn’t let me add all the images and scanned PDF servicing / maintenance, so I’ve added them to Google Drives: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1fcWN2oerYoA2Aboy52fR9GKpkP7PayTv?usp=share_link
