Started at £65k with no options. About the same as an E63 - of which I saw a similar age and mileage one for similar money 6 months ago (which took ages to sell). This is probably about right... Great value though!

Problem with all this stuff is unless it really is a weekend toy, anyone who's running one as a daily driver can probably afford to buy it new.

My driver seat is a lot better than that on 52,000 miles and nearly 7 years old so it is probably about right...

The leather in AMGs seems to wear very well - not sure if it's a different grade to other 'lesser' Mercs but the drivers seat on my C55 at 70k looked virtually new, the leather in my C43 still looked brilliant at 120k and 12 yrs old.
