Surely though the old E55 is getting to the stage where you shouldn't really be trying to make it 'as fast' as the new stuff. I went from E55 > RS6(C7) and it was like stepping into the future. So much so that personally I missed the natureof the E55, that sublime feeling when you're on the...

Found thread on my nightly lurk, the local St. Helena's here were amazing with my wife, didnt know about them till I needed them and OMG , if only the NHS was run the same way. Added a few quid as they all deserve it...

Just read ad, someone will be very happy if they're after an E55 ! good luck with sale...

Ah, glad to see she didnt fall apart on the way home :) The old girl didnt get alot of use so nice to see she's in good hands... I miss it already, driving the wife's puke at the moment !... Did you ever manage to prise open that little comparment near glove box?

They've been pretty stable for last 5 years, I bought/sold mine in that period and 'lost' £500, estates definately rarer though, so I cant really see prices going down as long as you boys keep them running :)

Finally been picked up, sad to see the old girl go, been with me the longest of many cars @ 5yrs !

Provisionally sold...gulp...

I've had some sudden and life changing news in the family, so sadly this old girl needs to go. Price reduced to £11k no offers.

Its a proper old boys coupe, pre-lining their corded pockets with power. They may as well circle round the pizza, last one to finish eats it.. disgusting behaviour....

The BS between Harris and Le Blanc does my head in.. Bin Le Blanc and give Harris more room, in fact bin them all apart from harris and work from there :)

Thanks merc85, the wagons do have a certain presence , I love the fact its hidden a 1st glance.

Even though its up for sale, still mine for now :) Really need to do some proper shots of it for sale and for memory !

Apart from an old B5 RS4, this was by far my biggest regret, sold at a time when it just did not fit in my life, now worth 4x , but its not the money that hurts....

I looked at C55's before getting the E55k, like a lot have mentioned, its just that bit more for the money, if thats what you want ;-)... You could have mine for a bag of sand more than the C55 OP linked :)

Wife had a jcw conv. (2009) , all I can say is there's better alternatives. They're nice, but electrics can be iffy, ride is harsh, mpg for 1.6 silly and dont get me started on seals !.. Fun for a while, but not nice long term from our view.
