Mercedes-Benz CLK

The C209/A209 Mercedes-Benz CLK-Class is the second generation of the Mercedes-Benz CLK-Class range of grand tourers, produced between 2001 and 2009. There were two body styles available: a 2-door coupé and a 2-door convertible. The latter being assembled at the Karmann plant in Osnabrück. It was also the last complete car made by Karmann before closing the facility.
It was replaced by the Mercedes-Benz C207/A207 E-Class in 2010.
The C209/A209 CLK is based on the Mercedes W203 C-Class platform, and uses rack-and-pinion steering, instead of the recirculating ball design from the previous generation. It also uses a three-link front suspension, and aluminium rear multi-link suspension. Compared to its predecessor, the second generation CLK is 61 mm longer, 18 mm wider, and 28 mm taller....
