Overview

The CLK coupé is excellently engineered throughout and boasts a supremely comfortable ride, while the elegant four-seater’s core design is based upon the fine Mercedes-Benz C-Class series. The supercharged 230K and V6 engines offer potent performance, while the 320 and 430 models mark this out as a highly sought-after vehicle. There are three original versions available – Sport, Elegance and the top of the range Avantgarde – while the self-explanatory Final Edition version in 2002 concluded the range.
