C63 507 Model Register

Apparently the estate exhaust pipe is a little longer than the Coupe, perhaps that takes a dB or 2 off the noise?

Other than that, I’m with you guys, it must be the body shape / design / acoustics at play. The thing is, I had expected an estate, without the luggage bay cover, to be noisier than a Coupe. Guess I was wrong.

Re tyres, no, they’re not the same and perhaps this is the reason for the slightly different feel there.

I’m still very much enjoying the car though. I’m having a reversing camera fitted soon and the winter wheels / tyres.

One happy 507er !

I agree with what you Nigel. I've just bought a PPP estate after owning the coupe and it definitely seems quieter (in a bad way) than the coupe inside the cabin. Need to get the secondary cats and/or resonantor deleted ASAP!
 
Prices seem to be holding up pretty good if anything they might be rising in value a bit

I had been seriously debating selling mine recently after receiving a good offer for it but I just can't part with it. There is absolutely nothing that offers the exclusivity, rawness, noise, comfort and refinement on the market.

Plus I know how long it took me to find one that hadn't secretly been in a ditch..! Although there are cars on the market for low 30K now I think you would be fortunate still to find one in pristine condition for anywhere near this. It hit me then that only 3 years ago I had to pay double the average cost to find an immaculate low mileage R32 Golf and they aren't even 1/10th as rare as these!

Hi dan, your post is spot on, I’ve had a good offer on my immaculate 507 estate And wondered weather or not to sell or just store during the winter.
 
Andy I hope those bicycles are secure !!

P.S. I didn’t know you were a Márquez fan !

The bikes are very secure Nigel ;) , I’ve been a Marquez fan since I started watching him ride 125cc, every time he swings a leg over the RC213V you know there will be lots of entertainment, I hope his shoulder is ok when he gets to Sepang :thumb::)
 
Another high mileage 507 up for sale on AT.
