Introducing my "new" 2006 CLK500

I've always liked the styling of the second series C209 but never thought that I would own one. Picked this beauty up in FL a few weeks ago. Less than 20k miles on the clock.
Hope you like it.

Thanks, rbrylaw. Yes, like new inside and out. Drives like it, too!
I'll be prowling the forum for care and maintenance hacks to keep it that way. Learning from you all as I go.
Many thanks.

I don't have pics yet, but got an 03 ML350 last week.

I have already taken the center console out to replace the cigarette lighter bulb and ran into a couple things but that is for a general new post.
Will get pics soon.

So far really liking the car (or suv, or truck) however you want to say it, and there seems to be a lot of support on this site.
My next thing to figure out is why the info center (not sure what it is called but on the center of the header panel with clock and compass) there is no backlight working for the lcd. Not sure if that's normal or not.

C180 Kompressor
Mercedes Virgin

So we have just bought our first Mercedes, a 2005 C180 Kompressor.
Our old car died so we were in a bit of a rush to get a replacement.
We love this car but it has a few problems which we are in the process of sorting out so I expect I will be on here quite a bit in the coming weeks seking advice from the more experienced members.

I've been a Mercedes Benz fan for years and am currently contemplating my first purchase. I currently have a 2015 RX-350 which is a fine daily driver but am looking at MB as a second/fun car.

Hi everybody!

So my name is Cudi, and I am hoping to making a purchase of a 2009 Mercedes C63 amg so I can actually be a part of the club. So if I do, you will see more of me and if I don’t I’m gonna kms(jk) but I will be very sad. So I hope everyone is having a good day/night and hope I get the car so I can tell everyone about it

Thank you

State: I actually just meet up with the guy and the car was Phenomenal. He had the head bolts, camshafts, lifters, and adjusters replaced. It also has a 2 year warranty.
Do you guys think that 24k is a reasonable price?
I also need to get new tires for it because I do live in Colorado so I’ll need to buy some winter tires. It’s also a p30 edition.

First Mercedes and first post at MBWorld!

I'm looking forward to exchanging information for with those have much to share so this seems to be a great way to get started.

What I recently bought was a Certified Pre-Owned 2016 GLE350 4Matic that is a flex-fuel model. For me this is a change from a Lexus RX330 that lacked the towing ability the GLE350 has. I'm enjoying is so far and hope it will be as reliable as our RX330 continues to be.

Fresh in from a recent Wisconsin snow just prior to purchasing this 2016 GLE350.
