A lovely car the Merc CLS - A friend and I bought an accident damaged AMG model in 2006 as a project and then had it repaired, ended up stripping the car to basically the shell to enable us to repair it properly and my friend was so impressed with it he has kept it - they are very well put together.  Enjoy your new purchase!

A few pics of ours from when we bought it to when it was finished.

Is four wheel steering standard

[belldarr]

No - it was an option when you hit a traffic island and then a roundabout at around 60MPH

That would do it although it's faired better than my first Vectra, that ripped the floor out of it when I did summat similar

Once you get used to that nice looking luxurious Merc, you will be happier to part with that old Omega. Who knows, if you still have it in late March/early April I might give you good money for it with an MOT!

Very nice indeed

Although for some reason the number plate looks vaguely familiar but don't know why

Very nice. 
I thought you said it didn't have Parktronic ......  I can see sensors front & back - no switch to turn them off though 
Does it have Airmatic? I like mine 
Oil filter housing is nice a to get to .... I really need to take the top cover off mine to get to my filter.

Not quite, Andy.

I said it was a £605 optional extra in 2006. Luckily for me the first owner thought it was a good idea to tick the options box.

Ah! Gotcha .... still can't see the button to turn 'em off.  Mine is in with the switches with the hazards.

On mine it's just below the gear lever....right next to the adjustment for the airmatic suspension.

That's why I couldn't see it.           Air suspension ............. is the way forward.
