holy cow, these are like £200k now

Is that even a CLK63 Black though, or just a CLK63 with a wide arch kit on it?

Ryan-3 · 3 Jul 2018 at 11:01

Isn't that a CLK DTM? Just going off the arches and spoiler. They're even rarer if that is what it is.

I think you're right. Didn't even know that existed.

Still kinda ugly with those silly arches though IMO!

I agree, bloody awful looking thing.

The Batmobile at a local MX5 specialist. Wing is chassis mounted, ridiculously well put together if a little out there. No sure what benefit it has, but it's running ~350bhp.

Yeh its a DTM, I think the wheels are specific to the DTM as well as the arches and a load of other bits. They only made about 180 cars worldwide, 574bhp ish? I think a lot were sold new to racing drivers.

Spot on, it was a DTM. Cheapest I can find for sale is a silver one for 260k. Jensen Button was one of the first owners, absolutely mental bits of kit. Definitely in my euromillions garage.

Nah, that's built well from quality components.

Yaayuh! · 3 Jul 2018 at 15:01

Needs more rivets..

I heh'd all the way up the M27 after seeing that.

One went for $425k in the US last year. Thing is most people wouldn't even bat an eyelid at it. It looks like Barry's Merc, but it's a supercar.

That looks like some sort of pimped up hearse.

Toyota DB, pretty cool IMO.

Always liked those, and the smaller Nissan Cubes. Not sure about the camber but hey ho.

Jony27 · 4 Jul 2018 at 11:48

Saw this vantage the other day and the number plate gave me a chuckle.

I would have the camber sorted, sod buying new tyres every few months.

lol, that road sign!

First Mexican fine I’ve had - 180KPH in an 80, £100 fine. Pretty sure I could have got away with £20 if I’d had cash on me but can’t complain all things considered.

Cop was hiding behind a tree, apparently I was one of the slower ones he’d caught that morning :eek:
