We all need a hobby, don't we Dash...

We do and when it`s one that involves saving cars from the scrappers is that makes it worthwhile

 

[NOMONEYBUTAMERC]

But there's so many cars and so little time...

Spot on mate. Just posted on another thread that an old mate of mine died suddenly at the weekend . makes you think. ( Sodit, i will keep the SL another year or two and stay young).:bannana:

You mention the C32 and ML63 - why wouldn't you just get both now??

It would be the pinnacle of your car ownership!!

Seriously, whilst the ML420 is a great car, if it's the ML63 you want then why not get that? If you plan to do a lot of towing or have an aversion to AMGs then I could maybe see the logic.

I'll have to have a go in yours, see what all the fuss is about!

The ML63 will more than likely come after the 420 CDi, I just want to own one for a few months to experience a twin-turbo V8 diesel.

I favour an estate AMG this time, I was trying to find a W202 C43 estate but they're a tiny bit rare in comparison to the saloon. The S203 C32 is not that uncommon, do I should hopefully get more joy with them.

Edit; just remembered that you've got both of these cars!

Thought you might of kept the pair of 202s a little longer, though I will say I like the idea of the diesel V8.
If you are going for owning every C class AMG incarnation, don,t forget the C27, IF you can find one.

I'll happily take you for a spin either car.

But not the ML270. That's the best car in the world. It has 2.7 litres, 5 cylinders and 4WD, so depending upon which measure you choose then it's 22%, 25% or even 100% better than the next best car in the world!!

I don't think the c27 amg even existed, I'm sure there is a thread on here that says it was never made. I may be wrong but would love to know either way.

 

[Deleted member 37751]

It did occur to me about the W203 C30 AMG, but I think I'll stick to UK cars otherwise I'll never get through the list!

 

[Druk]

Cruel - Mock a man while he's unable to obliterate the thread with how good a crappy four pot diesel is

Fixed that for you David.

[mika]

get several C43's for starters they will sell like hot cakes
tidy ones mind

The C27 actually became the C30 - it had a 3.0 5 pot turbo diesel.

Odd how you could not hear the AMG noise over the crap music

Is the minute over yet?

It's not over until I say it's over.

 

[Druk]

^ any idea where that road is? I'm guessing it's not the Bathgate Hills.

[Alps]

go the 55 route (either w202 or w203)

 

[John]

The C32's are very quick if you can manage to get the power down on launch, it's mid and high speed where they start to lose out to a V8. Nothing wrong with a supercharged V6 though

That's what I was getting at - is there much of a difference...

Clearly there is.

 

[BlackC55]

Oh yes. The torque does the talk.

 

[LTD]

If it ain't a V8, it ain't great.
