    Any good A35 lease deals about?

    My age is catching up with me, my 991 Turbo S is so fast my brain is struggling to keep up. I respect the opinions and advice on leasing we need to have diversity. im on the "Live for today" but have something in the pocket. Did the OP actually get the deal?

    I love my AMG - But what next?

    after I left AMG,I had 2 GTRs Now I have the 991 TTS and my son has the GT4. My requirements were 4 seats and fast The TTS has the luxury of any big car with the performance of a stage 4 GTR If you are a hobbit sized family, I can recommend :)

    Supercharge or GTR?

    Hi All, Now had my GTR (59 plate with 67k Miles) for 7 months. It has Stage 2 600 hp with hybrid turbos. I paid about 36k and im guessing I could get 33-34k for it The things I love Road presence, styling and rarity Performance -handling balance is sublime, gearbox responsiveness,1.3 bar boost...

    C63 125, A45 or stay in E63

    Hi P30egy, I had my cls 63 (6.2)for 3 years and fancied a change, so I got my 09 Nissan GTR (600bhp full de-cat). I am now considering buying a c63 as a daily driver as well. My CLS had the secondary CAT delete and X pipe which sounded nice but I always secretly preferred the c63 as I think...

    Looking for CLS 63

    I owned a 2007 model for 3 years, the positives have already been covered. I had the secondary cat by pass and x pipe fitted so it sounded fantastic but still subtle Things to look out for Failing airmatic - pumps or struts M156 Ticking noise - LH bank 7G transmission -limp home mode

    Mercedes reliability?!?

    Hi Adam, agree with what you are saying I have 2 company vehicles for daily drive, so I can afford a weekend toy I had the CLS for 3 years and did 15k miles and it allowed to me spread costs and keep depreciation to a minimum. I got a good deal on trade in and the car didn't fall apart. I cant...

    Mercedes reliability?!?

    Hi Synchro its running stage 4.25 but mapped to 1 bar only with hybrid turbos estimating 600-650 bhp, so its running relatively safe --lets see I never thought I would have car that would be head and shoulders more thirsty than my CLS - I averaged 18mpg in 3 years and now im averaging 10mpg on...

    Mercedes reliability?!?

    Synchro, I do understand where you are coming from. Its an individual decision, this morning I drove to work and the GTR felt totally alive -rattles and bangs and noise. We just love it to bits as want this kind of experience. My CLS 63 felt broken after the test drive in the GTR. I have the...

    Mercedes reliability?!?

    I have just moved from cls 63 to 09 GTR (stage 4), you cant compare these cars. The AMG is a bit of a bus -albeit a very comfortable one. I wanted something overtly sporty as a weekend car hence the change The AMG is hands down better a daily driver but I don't need that (at the moment :bannana:)

    Decatting.....what are the options?

    My CLS 63 is booked with EMP for resonator delete only -I will keep secondary CATS at the moment I want my car to sound like the C63! Will report my findings

    even better was my old debadged C32 -only 2 tail pipes meant that even petrol heads who tailgaited thought it was a c220 I considered adding a c220 badge but stopped short....
