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...

Burns and Co have had some great cars advertised recently, and this S500 is no exception. It will face an unreserved auction in December 2024, and should reach at least the late teens I'd think.. Looks to be a very original example of the Series 1 coupe - an extremely rare car in Australia, and my favourite Merc coupe of all time. The sellers at the time made the following comments: new. This...

Spotted on BAT i 2024, this is Elton John's S500 coupe! This example sold for just under $30,000 USD (very cheap for such as significant vehicle - and of course the last of the best Mercedes Benz cars - the 140 series. Check out the others on the register below.

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 1994 Series 1 S500 came up for sale in February 2023, asking $39,000. It's got relatively low mileage at just 189,000, and appears to have been kept in excellent condition. The leather trim and paint look great (at least, in the images). It's on the higher end of the price spectrum, but this is to be expected for this series of Benz nowadays - one of the lowest production coupes in what was...

Unfortunately, this one is a statutory write off so cannot be registered - one less of these great cars on the road in Australia. It will surely make a great parts car, with lots of very expensive parts, so it will be interesting to see what it sells for (spotted for sale on Lloyds Auctions in January 2023). This is a very late example of the series 1 car, which had already adopted many of the...

All the way over in Perth WA, this CL600 from 1997 would be one of perhaps just a handful of C140 V12s delivered new in Australia. The C140 is rare enough in standard V8 form (the lowest production S class coupe), but to see a V12 is exceptional - I think we've only seen one or two other V12 coupes in Australia up for sale in the last 5 or so years. This one looks immaculate with just 120,000km on...

This was advertised as a 96 model, but is pre-facelift model from 1995, so we assume that the seller is mistaken. This example we presume is Australian delivered, with 218,000km on the clock. At the time of offering, it was asking $25,000 AUD. A few other examples (particularly of the Aus delivered cars) are on the register - see the link below! See our information guide on these cars here: C140...

This S500 (built December 1994) was advertised on carsales Australia in September 2022 asking $18,000 AUD. It has a relatively low 180,000km on the clock (low for a car that's approaching 30 years of age. The seller noted that this car has sat in the shed since 2011.. Unfortunately, it sounds like the engine possibly has not run for some time which is not a good thing (you should really try and...

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...
