"A car has to first deliver in function – the ticket of entry – and then in fascination: the ticket to real excitement. The CLS Shooting Brake excels on both accounts – unlike any other car in the market."
MB says: "The proportions of the CLS Shooting Brake are clearly those of a coupé, and create a basic stance which makes it look ready for the off: the long bonnet, narrow-look windows with frameless side windows, and dynamic roof sloping back towards the rear.
"It is only when taking a second look that it becomes clear that the Shooting Break actually has five doors and offers 'more' in terms of function."
"The CLS Shooting Brake is based on the great tradition of stylish sportiness which has always characterised Mercedes, and takes these unique icons an exciting step further," explains Gorden Wagener, Head of Design at Mercedes Benz.
"It stands for the enhanced design idiom of Mercedes-Benz which is oriented towards aesthetic, avant-garde principles."
Somehow we at Motors think Irish people will still call it a CLS Estate!
