CLK230k (W208/1999) changing to CLK270CDI avantgarde (W209/2003)
My new baby - Paid for so I can collect in 2 days
I have a 1999 CLK 230k with 158,800 miles on, and it's got a sudden case of the rusting blues. 
This week I have driven about 1,000 miles looking at alternatives; all CLK270 diesel, all need to be silver/blue/champagne/black and have either cream or 2-tone grey leather and preferably with wlanut dash, but carbon fibre would work for some trim...
Attached are what I finally decided upon.
2003, CLK270 CDI Avantgarde A, with 120,000 miles.
Beautiful.

Nero and Lowpost,
You guys have the same wheels, right? What is the exact name of the wheels? Vorsteiner?
So far I really like the C63 reps like Andy's, but your wheels are growing on me.
I think certain wheels look really good with the right color combo as well.
I currently have the stock 17" wheels on my Brilliant Silver 2005 CLK500 Cabriolet. Thinking of doing 19" upgrade. Not sure how it would look without buying aftermarket shocks and springs.
Thanks in advance.

P.S. Just read some info and they may not fit my car; they sell these in replicas?
