Here she is, my 2003 W209 CLK270 CDI:

Extremely happy with my final choice of replacement over my trusty W202 - you will be missed!
I know its not the 3.2 diesel, but the power output feels amazing, even though its meant to be the same as my W202.

Real headturner aswell, had a couple of ladies smile - somthing which never happened driving a W202!

And me being me, list of my planned mods (in no particular order!):

-W207/W212 DRL's - already sourced a set of the 'Hockey stick' style ones
-Facelift 3 bar grill
-Facelift rear clusters
-CLK63 AMG front bumper
-CLK55 AMG rear box - either prefaclift twin pipes, or the later/CLK63 AMG quad pipes
-Rear Carbon Fibre diffuser
-19" AMG wheels, not decided on which style yet
-Facelift switch gear (already bought)
-Facelift climate controls (already bought) - Seriously, the existing pre-facelift controls look like they are from a 1987 Fiesta Popular-Plus
-Rear sunblind
-Parktronic

Already fitted LED sidelights & rear numberplate lights
And thats only the beginning, now heres the pictures on the 1st 'summers' night of the year!

That mileage is insane! cool project. Can you up the boost on that motor via computer chip? There is tq to be had somewhere in that beastie !

betrezra

Any pics of that motor? Curious to see what a turbo diesel clk motor looks like

KILLERHERTZ

Yep, might get it chipped in the future up to 230bhp.

I had 59 Mpg yesterday!

betrezra

Check this out...... bigger turbo! Crazy to hear that ratta-tat-tat out of the clk! Very cool car. I'd love to have one for daily driver to/from town.

Turbo upgrade....... you could go nuts with this.... ported intake, ported turbo inlet/outlet... better exhaust, tune....... make me think this could be fun

betrezra

You sure that fuel economy is not in KM/liter? Cheers.

KILLERHERTZ

Im sure!

Someone on mbclub.co.uk got 70.4 Mpg, I aim to beat it

betrezra

Check this knuckle head out

Clk makes him soooooo happy!

Facelifting the dash at the moment - massive job!

Cool posts, keep the updates coming

KILLERHERTZ

All done! wasnt as difficult as I thought and I have no screws left over!

Aircon working, Audio 20 working(ish) no dash controls etc.

The top section of dash I need to make a custom connector out of an old SCSI lead or somthing but looking good eh?

Audio 20 working:


Finally rid of the 80s Transit van trim:
