Mercedes-Benz CL500 - I bought one! 

Haha! OK! Wasn't planning anything as drastic as that, just some tasteful upgraded AMG rims. No aftermarket exhaust though! Thanks for stopping by!

Yeah let’s remove that muffler

V8 das macht Krach in der Nacht! 💪💪💪 MAE Felgen sind ein muss bei diesem Babawagen 😎

Thanks for the insight,I'm looking at a dark blue pristine 2005 with 46,000 km at a good price and was wondering if it would be a maintenance nightmare..

Great story, thank you! Hope the CL gives you many more years of motoring pleasure!

PS you clearly have great taste as well!

Yep I am very tempted by one too. I have always like these.

I actually watched your videos before purchasing, so thank you! My CL500 videos get way more views than for the Maserati!

haha, that's so cool! Nice one. Let's see how we get on!

Yes, addictive is the word!

Was looking at buying a 2007 CL500 but the Repairs are way to expensive, need to adleast $10000 a year to spend on its up keep

Sorry if that was worded badly - it isn't peanuts, all I meant was that it is a hell of a lot of car for the price...

I knew that. It's just my literal form of humor! Congratulations on the car!

Great tip thank you. I need to RTFM, as the saying goes!

A car like this has infinite hidden functions that require you to RTFM haha. I learnt a few from my Mercs' over the years. Here are some I can share that you might find useful. If you have the windows open and/or sunroof you can quickly close all of them at once by holding down the recirculation button on the air conditioning. It activates 'tunnel' mode that closes all open areas to prevent pollution from getting into the cabin. Holding it down a second time will re-open all the windows/sunroof back to the exact same spot it was before closing. When you're using the speed limiter, if you encounter an emergency situation that requires you to accelerate over the limit set, push the accelerator into the 'click' and you will hear a beep as the limiter disengages and allows you to accelerate as normal.

Check out my CL500 playlist here: ru-vid.com/group/PLol6cRxlesbca-Y1QJN1t2eg2aMYkZFJO Lots about the ABC...

I have a cl500 and the abc system needed repair. I had to change 4 accumulators, two hydraulic lines, not to mention the 8 to 12 L of pentosine fluid to replace the hydraulic fluid that spilled out when the abc hydraulic line broke. All in all about 1800.00 US dollars for the parts and I did all the work. Mechanics wanted up to 7000.00 US dollars to fix. Not a cheap fix.

Everything automotive is expensive in Australia...

Yep! They’re in Rydalmere now though

It's doing well! Update video coming soon!

sputnic same here!! I want one so bad and I truly feel that it gets a bad rap but in real life it's not all that bad to own/work on need be..

They're quirky at times but not that bad if you buy the right one! ;-)

They're pretty reliable, but always get an inspection, especially on the ABC suspension, because that can be $$$

Very smooth indeed. Great luxury! Pretty quick as well if you push it.

Haha - or on blocks...!

My experience buying the CL500 was good and Richard's very decent. He has lent me a number of cars for review on my channel.

Wow! Crazy value!

MOBEEN© bro think of the insurance the gas that it burns and stuff it ain’t cheap

Buy it

A lot of car for the money!

Whoever sold it too you made alot of money. Sorry to break it to you brother. But if u love it thats all that matters

Aussie Dollars, not US
