Yep, the AMG badge is one of those eBay specials. It's amazing how many cars you see for sale with those...

Looks like a really nice car - just had visions of all the AMG stuff being a bit of an add-on and not actually from the factory when built.

Doesn't matter about being added on as long as it's one properly.
The kit may well have been factory fitted (but the side skirts didn't look right at first glance). The exhaust would almost certainly be aftermarket, as would the eBay limited edition plaque and the 'AMG window ethching'.
As you said it looked okay, but why lie about the car claiming it's a factory special (unless that's what they were told when they bought the car!)

He does say it has the build sheets. Would these be forged?

Seems like someone has bought it - must have been OK
If all those pictures were taken at the same time the steering wheel is attached upside down

The AMG signature plate appears not to be centred perfectly. Can't imagine AMG would produce a rhd model that no-one on here has ever heard about before. Wouldn't they also have remapped the engine??
Nice car but why make a car look like an E55 when it's not. A bit "Barry". IMHO.

The only genuine factory AMG diesel (so far) has been the C30AMG Sports Coupe. I think that had an uprated 5-cylinder 270 engine, but wasn't sold in the UK.

Not real, exhausts are an aftermarket add on. Nice enough car though

It's nice but it's just a normal E320 CDi with amg body kit and hes just added the 4 AMG tailpipes...
I can do that to mine add 4 AMG tail pipes and buy an ebay sticker and call it limited edition from AMG lol.
Ohh and also I've noticed it does not have the proper AMG lip spoiler, its just a £30 ebay one!
