Pros and cons of your AMG

Cons:

Having to leave centre storage area open when using media cable

Having to explain it's not a 6.3 (and sounding like a nerd)


Can't control iPod thru wheel??

Yes... it's not a 6.3.... even Merc say is it in some brochures!
 
Pros:
It's a W211 so it's got the best dashboard layout ever made.
When it's in manual mode and drop a gear there's a wondrous cackle as though the car is laughing.
The acceleration is ridiculous.
From a standing start when you put your foot down the engine looks as though it string to escape.
The fuel economy is fantastic (relatively speaking)
The exhaust note sounds like a fighter jet.

Cons:
Can't think of any.

at least his not afraid someone come past with an AMG and leave him for dust !!! Like the bmw drivers!!!:D
 
Pros: Always wanted a CL - S class luxury in a coupe plus they are rare. Stupidly fast. Bose sound system is actually pretty good. It's black. Smoking tyres at lights is always fun. Aluminium body and plastic wings/boot = fix corrosion once and job done!

Cons: It's black (detailing nightmare), engine noise when just commuting is a bit loud for my taste and takes away from the luxury feel - sounds great when giving it beans though! Fear of ABC problems arising. Too fast for road use, need to check in to Crail dragstrip to let her loose.


She's booked in for a service B (along with ABC & Trans fluid changes) tomorrow at MB Edinburgh (Newbridge), don't care how much it costs TBH - expecting £2k minimum. I know the car cost a fortune new so expect the running costs to be high, no GF = car gets all the money so that's no a con either. :thumb:
 
Pros:
Finally got my V8!!
Looks fantastic.
Goes like stink

Cons:
Has an awful boomy exhaust (booked into PCS next week for remedial surgery)
It's a non standard colour and is about to cost me a fortune to find a match!
 
Pros:
Sound (esp with 2nd decat)
Grunt
Don't see many C63 wagons
Menacing when in rear view mirror

Cons:
I have a job so can't spend all day cleaning it
 
Pros
Not much can 'burn' me at the lights:D
I get to see the very good looking cashier at the BP fuel station very often:thumb:

Cons
Hated by BMW/JAG drivers who seem to want to race me on every encounter:crazy:

what a coincidence !!:D
 
That's because the search picks up the VW Polo with the E specification 55 (2005/2006) plates

Turns out it is E specification but it the '55ps' model (spotted 2004/04 plate which came up, for example).
 
I am surprised you can't control your iPod via the steering wheel, is there a reason why it doesn't work?

Yes, that's what I was asking.
I can.

Yes... I get the same with S65.... I guess the S spec has 65ps?
 
You have to allow yourself to dream sometimes I think.
