Wow, looks like a NTG1 in there. Didn't realise they were fitting these as early as 2002!
Given they fitted these to late 2008 seems like a long run for in car technology - not that it doesn't really do everything I need, but would expect things to be a bit more slick given the time elapsed.
Nice car.

There is a cheap Gold one about too I have seen recently. Will see if I can find it. Think it was even cheaper.
2000 Mercedes Benz S55 AMG Metallic Gold | eBay
Under £4k - is this the one?
S55 rather than S55k though..
Still, at a glance looks in ok shape - not plastered in rust from what you can see in the photos.

Ah yes, sorry my mistake - I didn't notice its year - saw it quite a few weeks ago now. Seems good value though.
I quite like the gold and nice spec?

Don't forget that there's 140bhp difference between the N/A and the supercharged version... 360 vs 500bhp.

The 500hp must be fun. I need 500hp in my life.
Nice.

I drove past the car in the op about two hours ago, couldn't get a good look as it had a covering of snow but the one thing that stood out was how dark the tints are. Obviously illegal and made it look like a pimp's car.
