The seller offers for sale this 1998 Mercedes-Benz CLK 320 cabriolet Brabus, powered by a 3.2-litre six-cylinder petrol engine paired with an automatic transmission. The car comes from third ownership, with the previous owner keeping it for 17 years. It has a fresh technical inspection, is described free of visible rust and includes a Brabus full-option equipment package. The engine starts without hesitation, runs clean with no blue or white smoke once warm and produces no unwanted noises. The gearbox shifts smoothly and quietly. The paint shows light wear on the door edges, and the boot lid currently cannot be opened due to a noted issue. The interior is clean, functional and presents with minimal wear, and no accident damage has been reported.
The soft top is present and operates smoothly with only slight resistance that would benefit from lubrication, while the mechanism is reported as fully functional. No hardtop is included.
The Mercedes-Benz CLK-Class of the late 1990s offered a blend of comfort, solid engineering and understated style. Based on the proven mechanical platform of the era’s Mercedes sedans, the CLK cabriolet provided open-top driving with the refinement expected from the brand. The smooth V6 engine ensures relaxed cruising, while the automatic gearbox contributes to an easy driving experience both in the city and on longer trips. Models equipped with Brabus enhancements gained visual appeal and additional desirability, making them attractive to enthusiasts seeking something more distinctive. Today, the CLK 320 cabriolet represents an accessible entry into Mercedes open-top motoring, appreciated for its reliability, comfortable ride and timeless design.
