can anyone explain this....

what transimisson does this car have?
it seems like a manual?
see the pedals and the shifter....

i thought manual is not available for w209??

AMG4life

it's only not available on 320's, 500's, 55's

Correction, it is not available in the US. Pls look at the speedometer -- it is in KMH, not MPH.

This is probably a European or Asian car (although not UK since they driveon the wrong side of the road).

the steeing wheel is on the left just like US>..

so it cant be european/asian car...must be UK car?

jmg

Being one of the rapidly falling number of countries that drive on the correct side of the road, the UK steering wheel is on the right and the speedometer reads in miles and kilometers. It's a mainland European or Asian vehicle, they all drive on the wrong side!!!!

ps try this link for the full left/right story:

Look, I was polite, you were not. Try using your brain. This is a friendly forum where people share comments, ideas, and experiences.

I will not dignify your "facts" any further.

I hope your question is now answered. This is a car from overseas.

the clk 200, 240, and 270 all have manual transmission as a standard option. As previosuly mentioned, those models are not available here in the US.

Hi All,

I've got the manual 240. It's actually a really good gearbox, which is pretty unusual for Mercedes. Absolutley no problems with it and I have to say that there is a sweet spot on the engine at about 3,000 to 4,500 revs where the acceleration is amazing - you probably can't capitalise on that in an automatic as well.

Michael.
