The seller offers for sale a Mercedes-Benz CL 500 from 1994. This luxury coupé is powered by a 5.0 liter eight-cylinder petrol engine paired with an automatic transmission. The car was previously owned in Italy and later registered in Spain, where it has continued to be used and maintained. The engine runs well and the gearbox shifts smoothly, providing a calm and refined driving experience that matches the character of the model. The paintwork presents well for its age, showing only light signs of use over the years, and the interior is in tidy condition with some visible wear on wooden trim elements.
The Mercedes-Benz CL 500 belongs to the flagship W140 coupé range, a series known for its emphasis on comfort, solidity, and advanced engineering for its era. Introduced during the 1990s, these models set benchmarks in ride quality, refinement, and build integrity. The V8-powered CL 500 offers effortless acceleration and relaxed cruising, making it well suited for motorway driving and longer journeys. Today, the W140 coupés are appreciated for their understated design, strong mechanical reputation, and their role as one of the last traditionally engineered Mercedes-Benz luxury models before the digital era.
