Just a pity it's a W210

 

[rockits]

Just watched it [emoji6]

Agreed still prefer a 211 as was never a fan of the 210 bit still great VFM.

Watched it too. Lot of car for $7.5k.

Amazing to see one without any rust. That lovely (for car bodies) SoCal climate.

Was a good watch. The engine builder who built that car was the guy who built my old E55K. Andreus shults. Something like that. I still find it hard to see how he got that car for £3,000.00.

W210 cars never had a plaquette with engine builders name.
Name tag came with w211 AMG cars.
Where did you see engine builders name on WD AMG?

They had to fix drivers seat failing it's shape and the leather was worn.
Upholsterer made it look like new again.

Well, watch it again and you will hear the engine builders name mentioned. That will answer your question above

Yes, I remember Mike mentioning engine builders name, but how did he know who build the engine?
There is no name tag on top of the engine like on the w211 E55 AMG.
M113 engines never had plaquette it came on M113K

Don't know how he knows who built the engine. But once I heard the name I remembered he was the builder of my once owned 55k.

Haven’t seen the program, but maybe they contacted AMG for the build spec/vehicle details?

There's no builders plaque on my '02 SLK32 either, that didn't start until '03.
AMG or their Private Lounge will provide you with the builder, if you give them the VIN

My builder was Timo Brill

Login to the AMG Private Lounge, go to the Forum (or Community) and search for “Who made your engine?”. I’ve sent you a link through PM.
