Time for a change, incoming E63 Biturbo

[AMGeed]

I've been searching for a while, and today I bought a 2014 E63 Biturbo which will replace the fantastic E55 I've had for over 6 years and can be found in the classifieds for sale.

The test drive went well and its apparent inside the car the exhaust is far louder than a modified E55 one.
Loved it.
Performance wise, its hard to tell how it compares to the E55 driving around London as no way can you feel the full perfomance on busy roads.

The options are adequate for me with 360 camera, heated seats, park assist, but the one I really wanted was the light grey interior and this has it. The only faults that stand out are the missing E from the E63 boot badge and a couple of light scratches on the lower rear bumper that may polish out by the detailer.
Full MB dealer history all done on time, 1 previous owner, and its being MOT'd Monday, serviced at MB Tuesday, and I pick it up Wednesday.
I intend fitting an Autowatch Ghost, and having the paintwork detailed and ceramic coated.
A remap and turbo downpipes will follow later once I've enjoyed the car as it is.

A few photos taken from the dealers website. I'll take my own when I get the car and have had it detailed.

I almost forgot, when the dealer gave me the keys to go for a test drive, I got in and noticed the Keyless start button was missing. The dealer didn't even know there was supposed to be one if the car has the KG option.
For the first time, my limited knowledge of Mercedes came in useful. He rang the main dealer and he confirmed I was correct and ordered one to be fitted when its serviced Tuesday.
Luckily they are only £30 and don't need programming. (according to the dealer?)

Lovely, a cracking colour combination. I may be slightly biased.

What a buzz it is, though. Can't beat it.

Love it - the looks are a vast improvement on the pre-facelift imo.

And don’t worry about the missing E - use it as an excuse to de-badge!

That looks amazing!! Congrats

Completely agree Lee.

Debadge + De-chrome (wrap) would look awesome on that!

Don't do it Roger, it'll be weeks before you stop dancing and singing "Hardcore, U Know the Score".
