Yes, it is true... I have crashed. My car is on its way down to Evosport. There doesn't appear to be any engine damage, just the front end and some punctured tubes. The airbags also deployed which obviously killed my dash but also shattered my front window. My car should be back on the road by the end of May. Until then I'm stuck driving my E320 which feels like a golf cart compared to my CLK. Anyway, everyone was ok, which is what really matters, and my car should be as good as new in a few weeks.... see you all then.

Sleestack,

Glad you are alright. Just count your blessings you are able to come back and report on the accident and that nothing worse happened.

Kleemann + E320 = temporary solution
