Afternoon Dan.... A few more jobs off the list of things to do. I agree with you reference the wheel arch. Go to deep in to it, as you know it can become a very expensive toy. Hope yourself & Hollie, children & dogs av a great holiday mate. I appreciate I don't know you, but you work hard, so it's nice to play too to even it out, and spend time with your family. Stay lucky. Stay safe. Stay healthy. Alan L200
Yes slowly getting there, really has cleaned up nice that CLK, such a quality vehicle to the modern ones. Yeah you have to draw a line on how much to spend on a vehicle of low valve, and to start messing with painting is very expensive. Yes definitely family i key, cars are my hobby and job…. But family is my number 1. Thanks for watching as always mate 👍🏼
Good work Dan, a few jobs to go, maybe do the glow plugs ? …but basically you’ve saved it. See how it behaves after a really good run out. Well done 👍✅
Really good on fuel 40/50mpg on a run, around the doors 40MPG ish. Road tax is dependent on auto / manual usually £260/£330 tax, provided it’s 55 plate or older will be no more than £360 tax, but if after 55/06 can be £700 tax Thanks 👍🏼

Yep the glow plugs would be nice to sort, just worried they snap in the head, so will need plenty time to soak in oil.
Thanks for watching 👍🏼
Those two holes are probably from the factory fit mobile phone. I have one in my ML
Yes some old Nokia, will have been a fleet car I bet.
Those CLKS look amazing when you put 18 inch alloys on them and theyre a perfect daily :D
I bet it would look fantastic, unbelievably smooth to drive
That’s one classy car mate 👍
Good work well done
Thanks very nice old car
Fit a new phone / satnav device where the two holes are on the dash.
Yeah that’s what I was thinking, or magnetic holder 👍🏼
If it was me I'd give it a run out to the safari park and see if you like it. If it behaves itself then perhaps keep it for the summer.
It’s been faultless after the bit work I did, such a well made old car.
The 5 cylinder diesel is fantastic
I wouldn't take that Merc to the Safari Park, the monkeys will rip it to pieces, take an old van instead.
Yeah such a nice old car, can’t bring my self to have it wrecked
Looking at buying a CLK 270 CDI.
Can you tell me what the road tax cost is please? And what’s it like on fuel? Cheers.
Really good on fuel 40/50mpg on a run, around the doors 40MPG ish.
