Hello everyone!
New to the site and hopefully soon to be new to MB AMG ownership.
I'm looking to satisfy my (yet another ) mid life search for vehicular satisfaction - "crisis" sounds so uncalculated! - and am in the market for an E63 estate, around 12-13 plate. I know the engine changed around this time and have driven a 14 plate which was mighty impressive, but high mileage for the asking price.
Is the 6.2 better/worse than the 5.5? Is there anything I should be particularly looking out for? I've read about issues re. engine bolts....does this affect the E63 of the age I'm looking at?
I currently have a 2.8t Insignia so tax and mpg is not much in it and my mileage is only around 4k a year.
Is reliability generally good if looked after (which I tend to with my vehicles).
Any advice would be greatly appreciated!!
Many thanks,
Nick
