Mercedes-Benz CLK500 Avantgarde 2003






THE Mercedes-Benz CLK's main objective is to draw back some buyers from a market segment owned by the BMW 3 Series coupe. The CLK certainly has the ingredients to do that, even if it's image is one of elegance and refinement rather than sporty BMW style - although the latter can be made available via an options list that includes plenty of AMG gear. And, in 225kW CLK500 form, don't discount it as a formidable highway express. Though a fair bit larger, it might not look hugely different to the previous CLK coupe, but some important stuff has been done to increase interior space and develop aerodynamics that are among the best in class. The latest CLK is also more refined, meaning its road manners are a step ahead of the first-generation model that came here in 1997.
