Hello all
I'm getting close to purchasing a CLS55 AMG. However, a CLS350 CDI Grand Edition has popped up in immaculate condition, 5 years younger than the CLS55, 40k less miles and an impeccable full Mercedes main dealer service history, for the same price.
I'm hankering after the AMG but the [rather small] sensible part of my head is wondering whether that is the right thing to do.....
Does any one have any thoughts on driving experience and running costs between the two? Obviously the AMG is going to drink a whole load more fuel....and I imagine the 350 CDI has plenty of real world performance?
Is the driving experience of the AMG worth the extra running costs in your view?
