Merc CLK or E class
Hi,
Just wanted to get thoughts on whether anyone has any recommendations or had issues with:
CLK 320 Petrol (05 plate shape)
E 320 Diesel (05 plate shape)
I'm swithering on either with an outside option of E320 petrol or 6 series BMW
Cheers Folks
Rich
Time for a change!

I have an '04 270CDi E-Class. I do 30k miles a year and would recommend it to anyone.
It is just coming up to 90k on the clock. I get it serviced at a merc specialist for around £150 a go and the only think that mine has needed is a
rear spring.
It does seem to eat tyres though.
No signs of rust on mine anywhere.
The 320 is a bit more powerful but the 6 cylinder sounds better than the 5 in mine and the mpog is not that much worse. I have been getting an average
of 41mpg over the last 60k miles. The other thing is the tax is more on the 320.
If I were to swap for anything it would be a M sport 530d. They seem to have more toys but bring strong money.
