I owned that car for awhile mate, anything you’d like to know?


The following comment prompted me to ask. Has the car been involved in an accident or is there anything as a prospective buyer should be aware of. Any help would be appreciated

Yeah no worries, at some point in it’s life it had a ‘ding’ in the tailgate (I saw the picture in a FB group) looked like it’d been reversed into something. It was around the number plate area and probably say twice the diameter of a fist 🤔 but either way this was changed before I bought it.

Paintwork wise, it looked like the bonnet had been painted at some point but I believe this was due to the Fire Opal curse! Other points to mention, the right exhaust tip looked slightly bent (as if it tried to climb a curb too high) and the front grill was broken near the top of the AMG logo. That’s how I remember it, not sure if it’s been changed since then.

Great car but a business opportunity came up and I sold it. If you want a garage Queen, probably best to leave it. If you plan to use it regularly then it’s not a bad motor 👍🏼

I wanted to post the forum that I am going to be selling KY63 ZRK shortly, probably via AutoTrader (some of you know the car from the Chris Harris YouTube drive and from the long term test car on PistonHeads, but if not you can google the plate and find lots of images). I have had the car for over 6 years and it was first registered in Sept 2013 and has a full list of extras, including a rear axle limited-slip differential, as it was used a promotional car. I bought it at just over 14k miles and it has now done just over 66k, and it has been my daily driver. I am going to be doing longer motorway journeys shortly so don’t want to needlessly add miles to the 507 and feel it is the right time to sell the car, no matter how much I enjoy it. I wanted to give the forum a heads up as I know some members are always on the lookout for a good car, especially an estate.

I have just had the matte black alloys refurbished (for the second time as they fade a little over time) and the car also had some cosmetic work done, with new boot gas struts and a new petrol cap attachment fitted (minor but it annoyed me that it broke). Matt, who owns The Matt Finish, has professionally cleaned and detailed the car throughout its time with me and it is currently at his premises after having a wheels off detail and the alloys refurbished and other works done. A shot of the car after a recent clean:

Matte/ Vinyl Wraps, The Matt Finish

I have the full VIN Decoder Sheet, but extracts are (and I am sure some of you know these codes better than me):

Code Description

051U DESIGNO MAGNO PLATINUM MATT FINISH
213 SPEED-SENSITIVE POWER STEERING/VARIO STEERING
218 REAR-VIEW CAMERA
221A LEATHER - BLACK/ANTHRACITE
230 PARKING GUIDANCE
250 AMG DRIVER PACKAGE
414 ELECTRIC TILT/SLIDE SUNROOF IN GLASS VERSION
440 TEMPOMAT (CRUISE CONTROL)
471 MECHANICAL LOCKING DIFFERENTIAL
475 TIRE PRESSURE CONTROL
512 COMAND APS WITH DVD CHANGER
772 AMG STYLING PACKAGE-FRONT SPOILER, SIDE SKIRT
793 AMG 19" DOUBLE-SPOKE WHEELS WITH MIXED TIRES
810 PREMIUM SOUND SYSTEM
840 DARK TINTED GLASS
873 SEAT HEATER FOR LEFT AND RIGHT FRONT SEATS
889 KEYLESS - GO
890 AUTOMATIC REAR-END DOOR
916 FUEL TANK WITH LARGE VOLUME - VOLUME 1
B54 MBCONNECT - REAL-TIME TRAFFIC DATA

It has been serviced at Mercedes Tonbridge (as some of you had already guessed) throughout its time with me and has had new front brake discs and pads about 5k miles ago and a new radiator and coolant about 12k miles ago after a small crack was detected. It drives as you expect it to, fast and loud, and I have looked after it meticulously as it was a car I bought because I wanted one of the last of the big block naturally aspirated engines before the world went full turbo.

Apologies that I have only viewed and not participated on the forum before now but thought that now was a good time to post on one of the last missing cars.
Hiya mate. Did you have a price in mind. DM me

Could well be sold already. See his other posts.
Further to my recent post on KY63 ZRK I have now taken a deposit from a forum member. If anything changes and it becomes available again I will come back and tell the forum. Many thanks to those that contacted me and I should have written back individually to everyone that sent me an email. If not, apologies that I missed you.
 
Does anyone know what happened to the ‘17 HR’ Black Series that was seen so much around Central London a few years ago?

Came in black, then wrapped sky blue, then wrapped army camo green.

Shmee featured it on an early video.

@Goldeneye I think all that stuff is standard apart from DAB. There's no keyless entry or Distronic cruise control or Blind Spot Assist so it's not highly specced.

54k miles is no big issue unless you're buying one to live in a garage unused. However, I'm seeing blacked out parts that lose originality and refurbished wheels that have lost the special lip exclusive to the black version of those wheels.

Just another 507...
 
I thought it wasn't high spec aswell especially compared to my PPP.
Im not 💯 but i think that black series went to dubai

This is the full spec, it was in a different section.

I’ve seen keyless on a few now, the magno coupe which sold recently had it too 👍🏼
