    [SOLD] E55 AMG 2003 - owned since 2009

    Hi Fellow MB club members, I've been quiet on this forum for many years, but my E55 has been with me for many years and has been our family car from 2009 until now - when with a heavy heart I think its time to move on. Why move on? Well a change is needed now. I want to experience other cars...

    Nice C63 run out hire deals...

    Some mental lease deals around. I just ordered this for my wife. VOLKSWAGEN GOLF HATCHBACK 2.0 TSI R 5dr Car Leasing - Contract Hire - Cheap Car Leasing & Van Leasing Might give my E55 a run for its money in real world British weather conditions!

    Feels like i have a different car!

    Thanks for comments, The gearbox one was done a few months ago. As for the other engine mount, I was told that it was fine and did not need changing and that the load was mostly on the passenger side mount. Would welcome some comments on this.

    Feels like i have a different car!

    I don't often post on here but read all your posts regularly. After many months of delays, I got round to changing the engine mounts, or should I say mount (passenger side) on my e55. The car feels so much better it is beyond belief. Hence my post! Thought I'd share this!

    funny feeling/ thoughts/ e55 ownership

    I bought my e55 when I was 30. 4 years later, I still love it. 2nd acceleration is mind numbing!

    Concidering buying this CL 500

    I think I may be right with the alloys, The front passenger side alloy looks like a 19" CLS55 AMG wheel. See whats others think.

    Concidering buying this CL 500

    Front left alloy not matching? - or is it my glassess As an e55 owner, i can assure you repairs are very expensive, you could easily spend 5k in year one of ownership getting things fixed

    Thoughts on this car (W211 E55 AMG)?

    I would tend to say low miles may help residuals. Mine is a 2003 and came with 65,000 miles back in 2009. Repairs so far - 2 airmatic struts, drivers door handle KG repair, supercharger clutch, both electric mirrors etc. I also chose to change the radiator rather than wait for problems to arise...

    Keyless go

    I have it on my E55, I remember looking at a diagram of what it involves. all the door handles are different, and have a button on them, as does the boot. The gear selector has a button on it too. There are sensors all over the car I think to see if the key is inside the car or not. What I find...

    ML420 CDI - What is it worth and do I want one

    In real world driving, the ML420 will struggle to top 25mpg. Both ML engines from my memory fall into the £460 road tax band. This will make future resale difficult in my opinion.

    Do they all rattle?

    Hi @Mark - I take your point about your previous cars. I must say, I was not so lucky, My Z4 rattled (18" Runflats) and so did my alfa 156 (17" sports suspension) etc. My C32 never rattled and rode very well in fact. I hope you get it sorted! What are the roads like where you live? around...

    Do they all rattle?

    Its a problem for all the new cars with big wheels and firm suspension - they all rattle. The only solution is to buy a non sport model, or one with airmatic! (which they dont offer on the C class) My 2003 e55 amg - doesnt rattle.
