The seller offers for sale this 1999 Mercedes-Benz CLK 320 Cabriolet with Brabus B3 V6 conversion, powered by a 3.7-litre six-cylinder petrol engine paired with an automatic transmission. First registered by Mercedes-Benz and later owned by three additional keepers, this CLK is presented as a driver-focused cabriolet with an original Brabus B3 3.7 V6 upgrade. The body shows some age-related corrosion at the front fender and rear wheel arch, while the rest of the paintwork is described as presentable. Inside, the car features an Elegance leather interior with automatic climate control and no major damage reported. According to the seller, the engine starts without difficulty, runs without blue or white smoke when warm and has no unusual noises. The gearbox is said to shift smoothly and quietly. The car has not been involved in accidents according to the seller and benefits from technical upgrades associated with the Brabus conversion. The current mileage is 278.000 km. It holds a valid technical inspection.
As a cabriolet, this CLK 320 is equipped with a fabric soft top, which the seller rates in top working order. The mechanism operates smoothly and quietly, with all components said to function as intended, without stiffness or misalignment. Combined with the refined V6 and automatic transmission, this roof setup makes the car suitable for relaxed open-top cruising as well as closed-roof driving in less favourable weather.
The Mercedes-Benz CLK (C208/A208) series bridged the gap between the compact C-Class and the more luxurious E-Class, combining elegant coupé and cabriolet styling with dependable engineering. In CLK 320 form, the smooth V6 engine, rear-wheel drive layout and automatic transmission offer relaxed performance and comfortable cruising. The convertible variant adds an engaging open-air experience while retaining the refinement expected from Mercedes-Benz. Brabus-enhanced examples such as this B3 V6 conversion bring extra character and a sportier edge, adding appeal for enthusiasts who enjoy something a bit more special than a standard model. Today, the CLK Cabriolet is appreciated as an accessible modern classic with usable performance, safe roadholding and everyday practicality, supported by a wide availability of parts and specialist knowledge.
