E55K AMG
This is my 6th Merc and wow it doesn't drive like any of my previous ones.
So far I have had 3 C Class W202's a C180, C230K and C280 all sport equipped followed by 2 W210's a E320 and E280 both Elegence. I must be having a mild early mid life crisis as last week I bought an E55K AMG Estate (I convinced my wife it was practical and did not constitute a full mid life crisis!)
I will post some pic's in the gallery after I have had a chance to give a full prep and wax.
I have already found the posts very helpful in finding the right car and what to look for, I broke a few of the don't go for that year, spec etc but at least I was fully armed with a wealth of info and went into with my eyes open.
My pride and joy is a 2003 in Tealite Blue with what I think is a rare choice of AMG wheels which I think are AMG III's. It has Comand with NAV/TV/DVD/phone, Harmon Kardon, Auto Xenon's, full electric memory multiple contour seats, PDC (retro fitted I'm afraid), rear factory DVD/TV, heated seats. It came with a very extensive service history and is a real credit to it's previous owner.

Well I seem to have found a way, just need to work on reducing the side!
 
Lovely and a nice 'different' colour also


My old boss had one his was in a Dark blue colour with the AMG spoke type wheels with a shinney rim... Looked lovely.

Bet your pretty :)
 
This is my favourite shot as it catches the colour true to life, for some reason I got a colour cast on the first one posted
