2004 W211 E55K AMG Brilliant Silver with Black leather interior.
After over 6 great years of ownership it's time to move on from the E55, so the best car I have ever had is now up for sale. The following ad should give all the details needed for any potential buyer to decide whether to contact me or pass. The price I have set is £8750 and accounts for the issues not sorted which are itemised below. I'd describe it as a good honest car with a couple of age related marks.
First, the data card which shows all options fitted when built.

Next service due in approx 8500 miles or 16 months, whichever is soonest.

04/06/2019 2x245x40x18 Goodyear F1 Aysmmetric front tyres £226 75
The stand out options fitted for me include Keyless Go, 200mph speedometer ,Parktronic, side window roller blinds and rear electric blind,glass sunroof, folding individual rear seats and dynamic memory massage front seats. Comand with AMG start up logo. Viseeo 3000 Bluetooth telephone adapter. Aux lead in glovebox for music from an android phone. The TV Tuner needs updating to a digital one to receive TV.
The A/C was drained and refilled in May 2018 at PCS in Horndean.
Next MOT is 04/06/2020 and the hard to find Viseeo MB3000 bluetooth adapter will come with the car. The road tax is the lower rate £315 pa. I have 2 working keys and the V5 in my name.
The mileage currently just turned to 121k but will rise as still being used infrequently.
Overall, the car is in very good condition but has a few age related stone chips on the front bumper and bonnet. There is also a very small mark on the o/s/r wheel arch, done by the previous owner the day I inspected the car!
The car was filmed by 5th Gear in June 2018 and can be seen in the following video
Negative points -:
The alloys could do with a refurb. Both offside side keyless handles need repair (Welcome to the Frontpage!) 99 Euros each.. The heated seats have never worked during my ownership. Something I never worried about or needed to fix. These have been taken into account in pricing the car, set at £8750 as mentioned previously.
Any extra photos required, text me with your email or message me here and I'll send you some. 07968 692367
