I do still keep an eye on this thread. That’s fantastic, how did you find the comfort and fuel economy of it? Granted it’s an AMG product (to some degree) I’d still find those important especially in the current climate. I find the E53 is a brilliant compromise of speed and comfort but I’m...

So just to clarify…realistically whilst I know the E53 is a different class to the RS4 and M340i, the most important aspect for me is comfort. I know they’re all fast capable wagons but which drives your typical A-B road the best..

Thanks all for your responses. I have heard a lot that the E53 is not in the same class as the RS4 and the M340i. Whilst I know that to be the case, I still think the E53 is around the same price point so I’m adding it into the same bracket, albeit I know a C43 would probably be the one to...

Have been looking at buying an E53 Estate on the used market for a while now but it’s a toss up between that, an M340i and if the budget can stretch an RS4. Few questions for owners and non owners of an E53… Does anyone here own an E53 estate? If so what’s it like to live with? Comfortable...

Mike: You’re right. Both do tick the “daily driver” criteria for me, somewhat comfortable? 5 doors, seats for kids, great speed, albeit the BMW is of course, a lot bigger. They both achieve roughly the same MPG, maybe the AMG a bit less, not a deal breaker, tax is the same regardless with...

Cheers for the reply, For some reason it’s just AMG cars. Particularly the E53 though, no one can explain to me why the GFV is so bad on that. I have looked at the E43 but there’s not a lot on the market at the moment. Not sure if that’s because people are holding onto them or a lot werent...

Hi all, I’m currently looking at purchasing my next daily driver. I’ve come from an RS3 and an F10 M5 so figured the next lateral step would be a Mercedes. I’ve checked out an E53 Saloon however for some reason the GFMV or Baloon on PCP agreements for this car are shocking, and most deals are...
