    C63 Owners - What will you have next?

    Sure is a whale. But a very fast one - Faster than the C63 off the mark, in a straight line, and around any corner - so I'm unsure why your saying otherwise lol. While I agree to a point, you have jumped the gun a tad.. I have a fuel card with work now.. Which means Diesel only and Euro 5 or...

    C63 Owners - What will you have next?

    holy thread revival indeed! I just stumbled across this thread which I started two years ago when I purchased my C63 while browsing the AMG boards ( I still lurk here!). I Sold my C63 this summer after two fantastic years with it. I was racking up so many miles with a new job that I couldn't...

    C63 to G350d. Am i mad?

    well.. the G wagon idea has worn off. Not to say I don't want one but when I think of north of £70k, the car needs to drive better and have more tech than that - for the money your simply paying for exclusivity and wow factor which is all good and well but as mentioned I think i'd get bored of...

    C63 to G350d. Am i mad?

    Appreciate the input everyone, some great responses. well.. travelled 3 hours to see one Sunday. I loved it as soon as I saw it. It is quite a ridiculous prospect I admit, selling my c63 and e60 530d to potentially use a G350d as an everything car. It had a surprising amount of shove in it...

JLD60 that was a great comprehensive more helpful reply, much appreciated haha! so to expand on how i use the C63 - i use it a few times in the week during the evenings going back and forth training etc, possibly one to two day s a week to the office, and weekends in...

    C63 to G350d. Am i mad?

    At the moment I'm running an e60 530d as a work horse, and I have the c63 as a bit of a toy which I take to the office maybe once or twice a week. I'm looking to consolidate everything into one car though. Which means its likely to have to be a diesel but something different.. I've found a...

    W204 C63 Satin black centre caps for 19'' wheels

    Hello all, my 19'' wheels are currently in the standard diamond cut/anthracite finish and are in generally good condition. My car is getting wrapped in two weeks so to tie in with the more sinister look, I'm having the wheels refurbed in the satin black / diamond cut lip option which we could...

    W204 C63 - Secondary Cat Delete or Remap first?

    Morning All last week my 2014 C63 (W204) went into mercedes for the big A service. its just hit 22k. the advisory on the service sheet was that both my front wheels were buckled - this is confirmed by the small vibration i get through the steering wheel at motorway speeds. The car was...

    2014 C63 - Clunk when steering and odd noise when driving - Dealer says Driveshaft?

    So! I was given a BMW 220d Convertible (ha!) for my courtesy car. It got me to london fine and was ok to drive, i'd rather have had a C Class but Europcar apparently had nothing left, it was that or a mini cooper. it had four wheels and a steering wheel though eh! On to my C63 - I had...

    2014 C63 - Clunk when steering and odd noise when driving - Dealer says Driveshaft?

    Hi All my 2014 C63 has sprung up two issues which I'm unsure are related. Basically, issue one is a horrible clunking sound when turning the steering wheel when the car is stood still (to get out of a space etc). It is a horrid noise.. it feels like the wheel is skipping across a sloppy or...

    Time for new rear rubber - Continental Sport Contact 5 or 6?

    Evening all i know this has been done a few times as the found on the search features but I'm looking for more up to date answers and to see what you guys have decided on out of the two choices. my local and regular tyre shop can get both at the same price, so its basically down to personal...
