The seller offers for sale this 2005 Mercedes-Benz CLS 500, powered by a 5.0-litre V8 petrol engine, paired with an automatic transmission. Finished in white over a light leather interior, this first-generation CLS shows 103.000 km on the odometer and comes with a valid inspection. The car has received recent maintenance including new ball joints, a transmission oil flush, all idler pulleys, the drive belt and front and rear brakes. It is further fitted with an elegant front lip, a rear diffuser with AMG-style trim and 20-inch Lexani Concave Sport wheels. According to the seller, the car has been carefully kept, washed by hand regularly and used mainly at weekends, and it is equipped with air suspension. The interior offers the high-quality ambience typical of Mercedes-Benz, with fine materials and a comfortable, well-finished cabin.
The CLS, introduced in 2004, effectively created a new market segment: the four-door coupe. Based on the E-Class platform but wrapped in a dramatically sleek, arched silhouette penned under design chief Peter Pfeiffer, the CLS combined the elegance of a coupe with the practicality of a saloon, and its success prompted rivals to follow with their own interpretations. In CLS 500 form, the 5.0-litre M113 V8 delivers 306 hp with the effortless, smooth character that made this engine one of Mercedes-Benz’s most respected powerplants, paired with a refined automatic transmission and supple air suspension.
As an early example of the original and arguably purest CLS design, the first-generation car is steadily gaining recognition among enthusiasts of modern classics. A V8-powered CLS 500 with a comprehensive recent maintenance history offers a great deal of style and performance for the money, and represents an attractive opportunity for anyone seeking a distinctive grand tourer from Mercedes-Benz’s modern era.
