US plated w208 in Worthing England?

I was surprised to spot a US licence plated CLK at Sainsburys supermarket at Worthing Wests Sussex England this weekend, obviously with US spec trunk lid which stood out.

Anyone on here?

In fact in the same parking row were no less than 3 silver w208, including mine, and all left the supermarket again, including me, within a couple of minutes, we could have had a convoy! Surreal!

Dive by, was the license on the front or back. Maybe someone transport their baby to London.

On the back, I noticed it immediately with the US licence plate recess... Must have been shipped over!
