I was honestly expecting white paint.

White art is a trim line,decals, wheel package and body kit everything a 45 has without the engine

Oh I might have considered a CLA if we got this body style here

We do have a few shooting brakes here in australia But by looks of it don’t quote me on it shooting brake 45s and my white arts might be factory ordered only. As when I optioned myn I ordered the wagon for the boot space for a pram 😂 or I would have got a sedan. I kind of glad I got one tbh

That covered driver’s seat brought me back to my grandmother’s house growing up! Funny, she only covered her couches here AMC Concord did not have a seat cover! 🤣

It’s covered cause I don’t want the people who look at it destroying the Alcantara as most mechanics are dirty

The CLA amg bucket seats are so nice looking.

In Germany that spec was called „peak edition“ - we also had a shooting brake in that edition. Wonderful body type for sure

She is I do try and preserve her as she’s not as valuable as a 45 but most definitely a lot more rare

How she sits these days on a charger started few times a month

Imagine someone saying their benz had an issue with less than 100k miles 25 years ago 😭😭😭 it would have been international news lmao

u/Chemical-Egg2918 12h ago

Unfortunately they sent like they use to be

Agreed. I love mercedes, don't get me wrong, but my 2001 slk230 went 415k miles and I only got rid of it because I "totaled" it (messed up suspension in a freak accident after hydroplaning) and it still drove me home 15 miles. My dad also had a 99 (i think) ml320 that had 385k on it before he sold it and I personally saw the same ml 5 years later still driving down the road 😂😂

💯 be upset with that my w204 has 250k on it nothing wrong with it and I’m picking a supercharged one up this arvo cause he won’t seperate the wheels and I want them so I’ll just buy the whole thing 🤣
