    Wanted: AMG E63 Estate Pre facelift 2011-2013 5.5 biturbo

    Yes - for sale for ages, mileage was 46,000 and it was up for £35k. Now 69,000 and £27k. There seems to be a large span in pricing. You can get facelifts for £35k ish now which must be pressure on the early cars.

    Interested in anything of the above model. Flexible on spec but would ideally like radar cruise, rear camera and pano roof. Perf pack not a deal breaker. I'm near Bath. I would also appreciate if any local owners could show me around one and anything to check on the car & paperwork. I did...

    Thank Phil, good tip on the service sheet. I feel like I am totally out of touch with these cars - too long in a BMW LOL.

    Buying advice - E63 Estate - 5.5 biturbo. Early model 2011-2012

    Thanks for the replies guys, I'm still thinking about it, so I have a feeling I might be about to do something about it. What are the service intervals? If I look at a car with 20k or 40k on the clock - what stamps should I expect in the book - are these serviced on condition and how you drive...

    E63 (W212) Options List

    Very helpful thread. I'm still looking for a pre-facelift 5.5 estate. I'm inclined to just do it. Are they reliable? I read about noisy? tensioner issues - is that a big issue or all probably recalled and fixed now? How would you tell?

    Hi Dave, Thanks for the reply. I actually am in a slight minority in preferring the looks of the pre-facelift (angled lights + the old stick up 3 pointed star which I've always liked), but would like to know what the diffierences were, and if they are significant. In understand the 5.5...

    2003 W209 rusty wheel arches!

    Did I read right that someone with a CLK 3 years newer than 03 - i.e. a 2006 model - has got the same rust? From the small picture from poster RF06 the silver car looks pre-facelift, hence MY04 - is this right, and hence registered late, or is this another car? Didn't the galvanising help at...

    2003 W209 rusty wheel arches!

    Hmmm, that's why I asked, so anything produced from April 03 should be ok. Is there an easy way to check the actual build date (sticker under bonnet etc)? I don't own one.

    2003 W209 rusty wheel arches!

    Hi James Sorry to hear this - what build date (in 2003) is your W209? Good luck, let us know how good the fix is. James

    At the risk of another thread lock for advertising - have you ever fixed any 1980s 911s? What would you charge to fix the kidney bowls, sills and b-posts on a 1985 3.2 Carrera (both sides)? Porsche parts, epoxy protection & paint, inc VAT?
