I would love to talk to JHmang that bought this car about his experience after the sale and the condition of the car. Buying a W215 whether it's the base V8 or the high end CL65 requires proactive maintenance. This example with low miles may sound like it's mint but the truth is that these cars actually break down faster when they are not running. The ABC components suffer from hose fatigue and the struts and valve blacks can have leaks due tot he lack of fluid pumped into the lines. I hope they at lease put 2-3 miles per week on this car if it is in storage as part of a collection. So JHmang if you read this please reach out to me, Gunter BenzMeiser at [email protected] Check out my channel dedicated to daily driving and maintenance of the CL500 at https://www.youtube.com/@CL500MBZ
