The issue is as Will says what is the car worth when fixed up. It is always a balancing act spending money and increasing value but there will always be others out there better for a bit more and if not too much more the cheaper one makes less sense. When it gets to the point it is not worth...

Ignore my centre caps please! Just jogged my memory to order a new set so just done so ;)

Quite a difference in colour.

Mine is Flint Grey though so a bit darker and a slightly nicer colour than Perlite Grey IMHO. The E55 badge on the boot looks a little odd or different on this one so not sure if that has been changed. Maybe related to the CAT N damage.

I guess the paint differences are directly related to the CAT N in 2018 so maybe the best paint job wasn't done at the time. Really like the rare colour but I would say that as I bought one of these earlier this year :D Doesn't seem a bad price for the mileage and condition. It sounds like it...

Yup, agreed with most of that. I don't mind the older interior but never been a fan of the E55 steering wheel. It is one thing I would change and might do at some point. I think your current alloys on your CLS55 especially in that colour work really well. Are they 19's?

Yes, can't afford an Aston or Maserati now sadly. The mortgage has eaten the funds from a Vantage, 4200 and a Chimaera. Lots of hardship and belt tightening going on trying to navigate through this tough time for so many. Noticed you had got back into a GranTurismo again and lovely looking...

I do really like the wheels too. Always felt that turbine kind of look suited the car very well. Like you the 5 spokes work well on the CLS55 too. The E55 dual 5 spokes don't seem to work so well though on a CLS but I think suit the E55 well. Odd that. I am tempted but must resist as keep...

Funny you should say that as the Aston departed on Friday! Just not sure it makes much sense having an E55 Estate and a CSL55 though. I shouldn't really buy anything more and if I did it should be a smaller/lighter more sports car biased. Current thinking is to get the two GTi's MOT'd andup...

Never driven a CLS oddly let alone a CLS55 but guessing they are pretty similar to drive although maybe the CLS55 will have the edge being a bit lighter and lower centre of gravity I suspect.

Funny I stumbled across this ad the other day and thought it looked a lovely example. Would make a lovely partner to my E55K Estate but guessing they are little too similar really and just trying to tell myself it would be a good idea.

Ah, I see. Didn't realise you meant your one. ;) I'm less curious now as it is a saloon and I needed the Estate. I'm more than happy with my new steed and I think it will be with me for many many years. Just been to Brighton and back for work. Even horrible traffic back with a 3 hour return...

Yup, I'm curious 😂 Is it silver?

Thanks. That was kind of my thinking too. Seems the most prudent way to market it. Gives the buyer more options rather than being locked in at a higher price. It drives pretty well and doesn't need anything immediately doing or anything that is catastrophic or disastrous wrong with it. The...

Having just finally found an E55K Estate recently I am going to be putting my S211 E500 Estate up for sale. I bought this E500 a little while back as needed something for work use but really wanted an E55K and couldn't find one. So bought this one I saw as a stop gap until I could find an E55K...
