Very rare in Australia - last of the 140 series CL500 coupe. I've been recording these as they come up for sale, and over the last 5 years there has probably only been 10 of these for sale in AU - the later model facelift like this even rarer.. This example was advertised cheap on FB marketplace in mid-2025. Looks in reasonable order and relatively low Ks at 190,000.. Close to being eligible for...

I haven't seen a CL500 series II car come up for sale for about 18 months. The drought is broken, with this nice low km example asking $20,000 AUD in February 2025. This is the first of this unique purple burgundy colour I've seen. I have seen similar AMG style rims on other very late model cars (some of which are on the register). There being so few of these coming up, it leads me to believe that...

Had to ad this CL as its special in a few ways - it's a very rare colour (Aspen Green) - the first I've seen, and it's also a very late model at 1999, the final year the CL was sold. When spotted on Ebay, the seller made the following comments: this vehicle has only 34,935 miles. It speaks for itself; you will not find another one in this shape. The exterior is a 10/10; the same goes for the...

A nice low KM example of a late and very rare CL500 - this one was advertised on Shannons Auctions in Sydney in July 2023, and it sold for $28,000 which is a reasonably strong result.. We do expect these cars to be pushing 40-50k in the next decade as they are the ultimate S class coupe. This is one of only a handful that was Australian delivered for the 96 year.

This car was advertised on FB marketplace in mid 2022 - and claims to be a 1996 model CL500. I suspect it's been re-badged. It is fitted with the older 4-speed transmssion and has all series 1 features/trim - so should be badged S500 (or 500sec if it's a really early one). While being an early car, I would have also though it would be two tone. You don't see many single tone paint colour series 1...

This CL500 is an Australian delivered example with relatively normal Ks for its age (they weren't driven much by the surgeons and CEOs that bought them new).. This example needs a bit of TLC in the interior, but could easily be brought into good order. There would be less than a few hundred of these cars in Australia I think (in the CL series at least), and they are one of the ultimate Bruno Sacco...

There seem to be a few imports we're coming across recently - one was recently advertised on Grays or Lloyds auctions, but this one was spotted on carsales.com.au asking $23,000 AUD in June 2021. The car looks in great condition, and is a late model 140 CL with bumper sensors all round and a few of the other updates the car received after 1995. Very rare in Aus, this appears to be an import...

This one was spotted on Ebay Australia extremely cheap - unbelievable for such a low mileage example. It's VERY hard to find these cars in late model form (1996-1998) - most are the earlier S500s. Hard to say how many would be about but estimate only a few hundred C140 CL500s on the road in Australia (maybe a couple of thousand cars if you include the earlier S500 coupes and the 1992/93 SECs. The...

It's rare to see one on such an exotoc clour - most examples kept to traditional blacks, whites, and greys. This looks great in what we think is Quartz Blue - If anyone knows for sure please let us know. This example of the C140 was advertised on carsales.com.au and through other online sources in Australia, in September 2019. If anyone has history on the car, please contact the author on the...

Advertised in 2019, reasonable mileage and appears in good condition. Athough this is a 1996 model, it appears to have been a pre-facelift car without the bumper parking sensors. At the time the car was advertised, the seller noted the following: Aall maintenance records since new, the car sits on 20x8.5 in the fronts and 20x10 in the tears tastefully lowered using h and r springs and billstein...

Spotted on Ebay Usa in June 2019, this is a relatively low mileage example in good condition. The C140s, being one of the lowest production S class coupes, are expected to skyrocket in value in the decades ahead, but for the moment (2019), some are available at excellent prices, including this one which sold for less than $10,000 USD. The last of the Bruno Sacco REAL Benz cars. The higgest quality...

This is my 1996 CL500 (Australian delivered C140 coupe - future classic), which I purchased in June 2019, with approximately 157,000km on the clock. An extremely rare car these days, you'd be lucky to see a couple a year on the roads - reason being that there were so few built globally (less than 30,000, and probably less than 1,000 for the Australian market?). If anyone has the stats I'd love to...
