That is true, I bought my E63 because of what it is and not what it is worth - not then and not now. And sometimes it is easier when the decision is made for you, so the E63 is staying and the GLE350d is not coming any time soon :thumb:

I popped into the local Mercedes Dealers today as I have been thinking about trading in my 4500 mile 2015 E63. I was shocked and disappointed to hear that in just under a year the August 2015 list price of £74000 has depreciated to £37000 today - that is 50% in 1 year :eek: Even though I...

I sold my alloy bodied Jaguar XK in 2013, and although it oozed soul the build quality was poor for a £70k coupe. As much as I love Jaguar's I do not think I shall buy another modern one, and especially an alloy bodied one as they are too fragile and high maintenance. I think my current E63 is...

The points I added in post 2 of the above link relate to facelift E63's.

Take a look at this recent, and still active thread as it will answer many of your questions: http://www.mbclub.co.uk/forums/amg-lounge/206014-e63-w212-options-list.html

I paid for Supaguard on my E63 and I still feel ripped off. Absolute waste of money.

Of course it is only my opinion, and I why would I accuse anybody of lying :wallbash: You have read far more into my reply than I intended.

I think it is almost inevitable that they will say yes, otherwise they will admit that they have wasted the extra money that the 'S' commands. I would say it depends on what you want to use the car for, and I find the standard E63 is more than adequate for everyday 'normal' use - but would...

my 2015 E63 = Thomas Pfeifer

Be very careful taking an E63 for a test drive. I test drove one that had just arrived at the Main Dealer in July 2015, and about 10 days later it was on my drive. Mine is a 2015 with no options apart from black alloy wheels (code 752), and as a bog standard car it is very, very well equipped...

V8 v 4 cylinder = no competition at all. I have an E63 and its combination of power and refinement makes it a great car, the only downer being a slightly hesitant pick up from stopped and the brakes occasionally feel a little underwhelming. Having driven my Corsa for the past couple of weeks...

As an interesting comparison I bought my E63 non 'S' and bog standard, apart from matt black alloys, new in August 2015 for £59750 plus paint protection. The list price was just over £74000. My E63 now has 2.5K on the clock and I love it :bannana:

So what was the outcome ? I bought a second car, partly as a winter car and partly as a runabout because I like having two cars - especially when one does not start or has a flat tyre when I go to work at 05:30. I spent much of the past two weeks looking for a cheap hack and have come to the...

I have been called worse :p

My choice rather than the dealer who were keen for me and the (ex) wife to go for an hour or so. I have owned loads of different types of car and can usually tell pretty quickly whether it will be any good for me or not, and initially it was fine especially when commuting between Bristol and...

Even easier - just enter the registration number into WeBuyAnyCar.Com and it will find the car that matches the registration number, and tell you the engine details.

I bought a new BMW 335i M Sport convertible from that BMW dealer in June 2013. My test drive in their demonstrator was between those two roundabouts, a total distance of perhaps 1 mile and the salesman speculated it was the shortest test drive he had ever been on. I thought the BMW was O.K. but...

My three week old E63 has a sticker on the windscreen stating the running in instructions, something like 85 m.p.h. max and 4500 r.p.m. max. for the first 1000 miles then slowly increase. I have always run in new engines, whether a Vauxhall Corsa or the E63, and I just use some common sense -...

My new E63 (August 2015) has 'orange peel' everywhere as well. Personally I can not get too excited about it as it only a matter of time before it gets covered in tree sap / road salt / dust and dirt / stone chips / keyed by somebody e.t.c.. My E63 is my only car and it is exactly that - a car...

I am paying £42 on my new E63, and I am happy with that as I know where I am and should have no unexpected big bills.
