    2012 E63 W212 Estate

    Forgot to mention it has the revised blue-ish timing chain fitted & the JCR plate will be removed & I assume it will revert back to BW12 CBX

    Thanks, having watched that I've now listed my E63 for sale on the forum & will check down the back of the sofa tonight in the hope I find the money to buy a W213 E63s :) :) - may even consider a saloon...

    I have to agree, living 12 miles from the nearest town with fantastic local A & B roads rarely policed I certainly get the chance to drive my car properly, yes I rarely use all the power on tap but I of kind like having in "reserve" if needed. Sorry if this isn't PC but why have the cars if...

    Thanks, I will definitely look into a Brooklands experience - like you I love my w212 & it's been 100% reliable & an epic car to own & drive for the past 5 years but I either need to get some cream or address the itch ASAP - if nothing else to stop Mrs Cooke tutting at me for spending hours...

    Funny enough I was planning to speak to Project AMG about looking into a suspension refresh to sharpen up the handling & steering etc…. Knowing me I’ll do some mods & end up keeping until the W213 come down under £40k Cheapest one I can find is just shy of £43k

    Yeah, I’ve been looking at these this evening - they’re sensibly priced and they have the 4.0 biturbo - just need to test one

    Unfortunately, they’re still out of my price range - maybe in a year or so they’ll be affordable….considering moving away from Mercedes until the W213 are closer to my budget. Need to sell the car first so I’d better take some photos & get it listed on the forum..

    Morning all, been here for a while now & have owned my fantastic E63 wagon for 5 years - i'm seriously thinking of changing it as i want something more driver focused & let's be honest, more dynamic as my daily driver - i love the car, it's a hoot but 99% of the time it's just little old me in...

    New Tyres for W212 E63 Wagon

    I've been running continentals for sometime now & find them excellent in both wet & dry conditions, they do loose they're grip once close to the wear markers but that's not unusual. I'll be needing a set of rear tyres soon so I searched Asda for those Goodyear tyres earlier but they didn't come...

    Lets see your AMGs

    Never seen one this colour before... E63AMG 5.5 V8 Biturbo

    hideous - looks like a turd in my opinion - WTF is that shite on the bonnet all about... Brown car & brown interior reminds me of my first car back in the late 80's...yes a Peugeot 505 (exactly like the one below) Of course, each to their own...just not for me ;)

    The AMG Car park look back picture thread.....

    Thanks Jimmy, the first pic was early 2023 when it had the original wheels fitted but they'd been powder coated, I had numerous welded cracked rears & one finally gave up completely en route to Italy so I sourced another forged OEM set that were virtually mint & they're now fitted as in the...

    The AMG Car park look back picture thread.....

    Assuming I'm going to keep the old girl (which I probably will as she's a peach) lowering it was on my 2024 wish list, along with a long awaiting LSD as trying to put 625bhp on the road in anything other than a warm summers day can be interesting.. Are Eibach the ones to go with..??
