CLK500 Cabriolet
(re-)Introduction?

Hey all. I was registered here a while ago, but lost log-in info in a computer crash... Between all my email accounts, etc, l have no idea how to recover it. So, i'm here anew.

2005 CLK500 Convertible.

Unfortunately, i'm here because of a slew of problems all within the last 12 months..... I used to love this car, but now i'm either a cautionary tale to prospective buyers, or a thorn in M-B's side.
