as I'm sure one or two of your are aware, I've been crazy enough to order a new C63 AMG to replace what was my old 9-month old example....just to get a different colour, the new PP+ and a leather dash! I also ordered this pretty much last minute but did secure the last one allocated for the UK...

They also gave us the option to add any other bits - so we went with phone pre-wire, rain sensing wipers, tyre pressure loss warning and remote roof operation.

This seller has been discussed before, when he was trying to sell his AMG Hammer in America.
Although, now he mentions in his latest ebay advert that he also owns a 6.0 twin cam Estate AND a 6.0 Coupe! And he wants to sell two of the three! :eek: :eek: :eek: HOLY COW! It's a shame the Coupe...
