Was at at Brooklands today, lots of similar 80s black beasts. Shame this isn't as original as it once was.

Hi all Does anyone have any info on this car: eBay Link

Car is NOW SOLD - many thanks for the facility. 18" AMG alloys will be posted for sale in the appropriate part of the forum

I agree with all of this but the seller has already taken a deposit on it over the weekend. Deal is not done but will be subject to cleared funds.

I have found an E63 estate up north so I'm reducing this to £10250 with the AMGs and £9750 on the standard alloys.

I am the second owner and it has full MB Service history. I bought it Approved Used in 2012 and it has been faultless. Specification is pretty high including 7 seats, COMAND, Bluetooth, 2 x Electric Memory Heated Seats, Parktronic, larger fuel tank etc. There are two options on price. With...

Can I please confirm if this is the case for a S211 E280Cdi AG also? :dk: Have returned to the Merc fold after many years with BMW :ban: and find it bizarre that the passenger mirror is not photochromic...

From the datacard, no but it has the suspension and wider wheels. The Sportline steering wheel and gearknob were nice...but not that nice! My Diavia A/C was on the datacard for my 300TE and was actually better than the MB A/C on the E320 Coupe.

It isn't a true Sportline. It probably has the option code for the suspension and wheels but the lack of smaller steering wheel and Sportline gearknob mean someone has stuck the badges on for effect (probably Avantgarde) and to drive up the price. Oddly no cruise control either.

You can't give G400 or ML400 CDi models away in Germany (relatively speaking). People go for other diesel models, even underpowered 270s, to avoid the catalogue of issues with the V8 diesel.

SW1X 7DD is Chapel Street (1 p) out the back of Buck Palace. Exactly where you'd expect to find a C124...

Not suggesting it was made in India, rather that the age, suspension height and steering wheel would more likely be found on cars originally intended for markets other than the UK (S. Africa perhaps)? Would a VIN checker report show up where is was destined for originally?

E220 Cab on an R plate? Helping out a friend here. I used to own a C124 E320 which I loved for a couple of years so I know a fair bit about these cars and have advised him accordingly. He has been to see this one and other than a battery issue this looks pretty straight. No A/C but he says he...

Because I used to live near to Gillingham in Kent and now live in Surrey. Plus I'd read good things about Wheel Wizard elsewhere.

Please have a look at the below (apologies for the low light). I'm pleased with the stance they give the car: - However, I'm not really satisfied with the refurbished finish from Wheelwizard Ltd in Cobham. They have been painted and the texture is quite pitted in places and not always even...
