The Mercedes-Benz CLS is one of the sexiest looking cars in its class and now the German carmaker has given it a nip and tuck adding to its looks.

The wing mirrors are also finished in gloss black and the front looks even sportier in these new body colours, housing the diamond-mesh grille and large curtains.
