My Biggest AMG Disappointment

[JamesRan]

Can't wait.

Are you always this enthusiastic?

 

[C43AMG]

I thought all of the 65's had this cluster. I remember vaguely reading somewhere before of someone who noticed the same as you in that the cluster had been replaced. Not a major issue but can imagine that you want the right one in there just like I would. Picture of mine below

It was me. Saw an amazing CL65 for sale and noticed that it didn't have the V12 Biturbo.

I emailed the seller and he queried it with MB, they couldn't come up with a satisfactory answer. He had it from new and knew he hadn't changed the unit. He said as they are so rare he had never seen another 65, so until I mentioned it he wasn't aware that some had the V12 on the speedo .Like James he was disappointed.

Good to know it's not just me! Interesting to know that he had it from new....maybe MB/AMG missed some for some unknown reason....

Doesn't take much to upset some does it...

Just noticed something....

Every speedo with 'AMG' and 'V12 BITURBO' or 'V8 KOMPRESSOR' has 'Bosch' next to the temp gauge:
