200 K miles

Angel 430 · 11-12-2011, 09:23 PM

So my 2000 CLK 430 just hit the 200K miles mark. I must say that the car still runs strong with absolutely no issues and everything still works fine. I bought the car brand new in late 99 and have enjoyed it since then.
Im curious to see if any one else has more miles on their car and how the car holds up.

I have 243k and the car still runs very strong. I have owned since about 125k

that's nice to hear. I hit 157k the other day and I'm clipping them off at about 1500 mi/mo. the problems I have with it seem to be the cheap plastic parts; window regulators, brake switch, etc. congrats on your revolution

243K

thats good to hear. It seems that these cars were made very well.
I make sure to take care and do all the regular services and that seems to have paid off so far. At the same time i do drive the car hard. Its a fun car to drive around.

I've got 199,864 on my CLK 430 Cabriolet and other than nedding to get my straps for the top replaced I've had no major problems. I bought it with 79,000 miles.
