PS: Agree with Leins. That photo reminds me of this piece of hilarity:

As a lawyer working in the music industry, I cannot condone the activities of Kim Dotcom, but I confess that this video (that apparently he funded) never fails to make me smile.

Not seen that before :hahaha: I recognise that "Dotcom" lad from a Ruby Wax documentary on the Gumball from the early 2000s, where he crashed his Brabus at the end

Nice position to be in Gregor, best of luck and let us know how you get on

there are many ifs......convincing wifey, right car and numbers working out but I am targeting this as my next purchase in first 6m of next year as stablemate to Csl. Struggling with alternatives.

My only concern is it might be too much like Csl....i.e I don't have another daily.

Porsche prices gave gone mad and are out for me but I do think this is a sleeper (in terms of being overlooked and holding value).

Nice find Gregor! Not seen that one although it was a little :gayfight: and I just love coming across unseen footage of the CLK DTM. There really isn't much of it out there.

I couldn't stay quiet on this thread without mentioning the CLK DTM is quite possibly my all time favourite car over almost everything out there past & present. So much respect for it and I know its not to everyone's taste but I think that's what makes it all the more attractive where it has some ball taking arches and overall stance which was touched by Mercedes best race engineers.

With their limited production of only 80 cabs and 100 coupes it reminds me of the CSL in many ways. One of which they are a blue chip investment and have always said the CLK DTM is going to be like its older brother in years to come - the CLK GTR, which are now priced around £1 millions.

It cost Mercedes €600,000 per unit to build of which €200,000 was lost on each car sold as they sold for around €400,000 each.

CLK DTMs can be picked up for as little as £100,000 ATM and you can expect a massive return in the next coming years, similar to the F40.
I know someone who bought an F40 15 years ago for around £125,000. Now he's considering selling after recently getting tickled to sell for £800,000!!

The CSL may take a little longer to get to that Level but it's going the right way. I have promised myself that one day I will get on the CLK DTM wagon before it's too late.
There are not many investments out there that allow you to enjoy it at the same time!
