Mercedes CLK
Overall Average Rating - 85.42%
Position in the Top 100 cars - 50th
As you might expect of a model tracing its roots back to 2002, the scoresheet for the CLK is a mixed bag.
While strong results for ride, performance and ease of driving impress, a rather dismal 90th for reliability and 51st for build quality show the CLK isn’t quite as robust as its reputation would suggest.

Manufacturer Verdict (Position - 9th)
Comfortably into the top 10, Mercedes has closed the gap on BMW. Third place for ease of driving and fourth for ride help, but the firm can improve on its 26th place out of 35 for running costs.
