2008 Mercedes-Benz CLK-Class consumer reviews

I just bought this 2008 Mercedes Benz CLK350 Cabriolet at an auction here in Canada last year and knew it had to have a bit of work done. So I found an excellent mechanical shop and they went over it from bumper to bumper. I put high end Michelin tires on it and it is the most comfortable best handling car I’ve ever owned. The stereo is concert ready unbelievable sound, especially when I have a cd in the six cd stacker. Love the rain sensitive windshield and the great gas mileage. I’ve been on three fairly long trips approximately 3000 kms each and the car handled really well and ran extremely smoothly. I did put high end synthetic German made oil in it and it made a huge difference in the performance of the engine. It has 175000 klm on her or 100000 miles still lots of life in her. Bottom line after all was said and done i ended up paying around $12000. ,Which included a full detail of the car, Canadian dollars which is about a $5000. In savings up here. Don’t forget my friendly neighbours the Canadian dollars is worth approximately 35 to 40% less than the American dollar.

All I want in a car Convertible a special look The performance of the car is just what I thought very responsive Remember it is a Benz

I purchased this car last October (2019) as a project, knowing it needed work. One thing I've learned is to bypass the MB dealer for maintenance and repair, if you can find a reputable shop. I did and save $100 am hour on labor. It had 73K miles at the time. I paid less than $5K for this. Everything worked, except the windshield washer pump when I bought it. However, I knew it needed new rear shocks and front lower rear control arms and a driver's side ball joint. Currently, I'm into about $1,600 in repairs and the car is near perfect. I get great highway mileage, between 25 and 29mpg. It's very comfortable to ride in. I love the memory seats which include the mirrors and steering wheel. The only non OEM item I've put into it was the new stereo. No bluetooth on the original. Granted, rear seating is minimal. Kids or smaller adults for ok, but larger adults... should really only put one back there. Next spring will include a soft top replacement ($2K). Seems like the previous owner did a hand made repair. Overall, including purchase, currently $6,600 and including next year's soft top, $8,600 into the car.

very and and comfortable. Has the sport look. It accelerate very fast. I had this car for a quit long time, never had any issues. no need for frequent maintenance.

I have owned sports cars for over 50 years including a Triumph and Alfa Romeo, as well as a BMW 3-series convertible. This car seems to handle as well as any of them and is much more comfortable. It is the only one my wife enjoyed and liked to drive. The paddle shifters are great in the mountains.

I bought a CLK 550 from Ravmotors and it was a great purchase. The car is amazing and the people that work at Ravmotors made everything so easy to figure out.

I love this car. It is my weekend car since we live down by the beach. It?s fun sporty and gives me all the things i need.

Bought the car at the end of 2008 as certified pre-used from MB. Car had 7500 miles with 4 years remaining on the warranty. Car handles beautifully. The 350 six engine feels like a powerful V8. Convertible top comes up and down effortlessly within 20 seconds. Mileage was as high as 30 mpg while driving at 75 mph with cruise control on. Interior is very comfortable. Exterior has AMG sport package giving the car sporty look. Premium 2 package is excellent. Love this car Now have 86K miles. Would never give it up. Keeping up with all scheduled service is a must to keep this beast going.

Great fun to drive! Cool in more ways than one. Smooth as silk. Dependable and reliable! Driven in a "no salt" zone. Roomy front seat. Room to sit comfortably in rear.

The only way I could get my wife out of this car was to buy her a new one. We bought the same car in a 2017 model.
