    Another Another New Memeber - C63

    I'm a fan of the wood finish (no pun intended but please feel free to inform my wife just in case as she doesn't seem to realise ), I specced that on the car I had built in 2018 just like you, beggars can't be choosers, I was partly ignorant not to check whether the rear seats fold over on...

    Another Another New Memeber - C63

    Damn, sorry for the delay OP, not long now before you're driving the beast I really liked the HUD, used to either use the NAV or revs on the HUD, the standard mode was pants. Took me a while to get used to not having the HUD or distronic especially which was fabulous once I got rid of the car

    5 years in...

    OP I've got the 3 year itch on my e63 s saloon. I came from 3 years in an s205 c63s and I'll just put it out there that this car is the craziest car I've ever owned. Even after doing super car driving experiences, I was more pleased getting back in that car. Its wild rear end with narrow 265...

    Autowatch Ghost II or Pandora or ...................

    I've had ghosts on 3 AMGs now , the competency of the fitter is important. One fitter used the door switches. I changed it using the card to steering wheel buttons myself. The other two were set with steering wheel buttons. One insurance company wanted a Thatcham tracker fitted as the car was a...

    My new to me 'runabout'

    They're good tyres, but very stiff sidewalls so are less comfortable than the pirellis they replaced. Good dry grip

    FAKE AMG Badges on Non-AMG Cars

    The mileage was great and I'm looking for an estate. Liked the paintwork colour but far prefer the unfake grille so I'll give this one a miss. Luckily there's no shortage of s213 e63 cars on autotrader currently. In the meantime I think I'm going to join the fake club and turn my bmw 645 into...

    FAKE AMG Badges on Non-AMG Cars

    I just realised, im guilty of applying badges on multiple cars 😅. I specced an amg In 2016 and asked for it to be debadged on delivery [yep triple face palm] and once delivered didn't look right so I badged it up with ebay aftermarket badges and ofcourse in true style stuck the badge and model...

    M156 - pre 2011 - how risky?

    Out of curiosity how much would it cost someone to get the headbolts and tapets changed and the other bits in one hit.
