    Would have asked the owner why a Merc and not something like a Lambo/Ferrari/etc
    Far too much for a merc - could have an M5 for the family and a 911 turbo for the weekend for near same money... well could now anyway:D Plenty of good deals about.

    Why is it far too much for a Merc? They are an amazing car. Its just as fast as any Ferrari and Lambo and infinitely superior in terms of comfort and luxury. They (CL65s) are the best car in the world as far as im concerned.

    That black is pretty amazing looking, but they are meant to be awful, way too harsh to use everyday and too heavy and wobbly to be any fun on a track, but jesus they look evil.

    The Black didn't make to much noise. Not as much as the Lambo yesterday!!

    Thats the complete opposite to what i have read. They are supposed to be quite composed on the road. Drivers republic did a great test of it.

    It is my ultimate poster car. Its amazing looking. I reckon i could get it up for it...

    I saw that Gullwing parked on the side of the road in Galway a few years back, I could not get over how beautiful it was......

    Here is a very in depth review of the Black;

    It's uk£100,000 MORE than the SL65......

    UK£150k, at today's exchange rate that means €173k of the €350k Irish price is pure 100% Irish homegrown tax.
