[brigadier]

quite a list. that's the reason you can't bid on a car without seeing it first.

If you could get a star machine on that, a lot of the problems could be simple to remedy...could be a bargain if someone has the time and skill to fix themselves.

Car was really worn, big time - compare to my S500 nowhere near condition wise

So basically a n/s crash damaged/poorly repaired s class srs alone could cost loads to fix.
Shame.

 

[Borys]

By the way engine was running very shaky as well :-(

[John]

Are you bored of your S500 already Borys or just adding to the fleet?

 

[Borys]

Not bored just in position I can finally afford an Amg andI've got buyer for mine straight away.Need to find a nice example first but after yesterday experiance will hold for a while-it did stressed me out to much

Its difficult to find a loved AMG model... much easier to find well cared for standard models.. The AMG's tend to be owned for a short period just for fun and then sold on..
