Mercedes-Benz CL (07 on) - Review Review by Dan Harrison on 04 December 2006 Last Updated: 25 March 2009 At the top of the Mercedes-Benz range you'll find the CL coupe. It sits alongside the S-Class saloon - on which it's based - as the most expensive model you can buy. And feels like it too. The CL600 now tops £100,000 to buy new and means that the CL takes on the likes of Aston Martin and Bentley for the first time. It's not short on anything: the interior is sumptuous, power is immense and it's a huge car capable of carrying four adults. But it lacks the image of other equally as expensive cars and doesn't feel as special either. 4.5 out of 5 Other Mercedes-Benz reviews Summary Facts & Figures Equipment Driving & Performance Comfort Costs Safety & Reliability Buying & Selling Also Consider Company Car Info Gallery 4.5 out of 5 Summary Tweet New price range: £94,545 View all new prices Used price range: £22,080 - £74,360 View all used prices See 1 new models for sale from £74,411 Get a Mercedes-Benz CL (07 on) information pack Next steps Mercedes-Benz CL cars for sale Use our cars for sale search facility to find great deals on second hand cars.
