Thoughts on price? Cls63 Vs E63

[Kbf1981]

2017 Black MERCEDES-BENZ CLS 5.5 CLS63 AMG S (s/s) 4dr for sale for £52980 in Manchester, Greater Manchester

I'm looking for a car that can seat 4, is a comfy long distance cruiser, and has dons exclusivity and excitement.

This quest has made me consider the above car which I remember really liking when they first came out - this car is local to me.

How does the price look?

Also, considering the GFV in finance deaks new, a new E63 non S can't cost that much different over 2 years can it? Which would you go for?

Price looks a little on the high side ( about £5K over) relative to similar cars.

The New E is a huge jump price wise over the old model. While I really like the W213 E63 - 80-90K with options is a real premium.

It's a personal decision ,but I'd go for the best 2015 W212 E63's I could find (without finance), and keep it as long as possible.

Hi, regarding finance comment.... If you take out a whopping load of dividends you get taxed at 32.5% on the extra income which is way more than the 5% Lombard would charge you for borrowing the money. It's not an affordability question it's simply the best way to buy the car. Take out 80k at 32.5% = 25k of tax to pay that year on top of what you pay normally. 80k at 5% Apr means what... 6k over the odds after 3yrs?

Written at speed so no time to get numbers exact. But you see my point.
