That or other ideas on a classic weekend toy...

Maybe I'll just go for a MKI Escort? LOL (Also wanted one)

 

[Major774]

Hmmm... He put his price up lol was £6,950... Now asking £7,200 because that other black E55K has gone.

 

[Alps]

rossy, i think you will have to travel to get a good one.

171 miles isnt that far!

This is in Cheltenham and advertised over your budget but may be worth a haggle?

If your budget stretches to it, get the Kompressor. You will always wonder what you are missing otherwise.

 

[V8 Supercharger]

Definitely get a Kompressor . . . . otherwise its like having one bollock.

Dont know which s-class you had before, but from Sept. 2002 even the S55 comes with a Kompressor.

There is a nice looking C55 on eBay at the mo, just under £8000.

[E270 Owner]

Yeh I know...like I say had an S Class...same platform...
Just like the look of the face lift E-Class E55k 500bhp also...
£7500 idealy...depends on car...needs to be a 4 seater...
Also been looking at XKRs...

I have 2 XKRs a convertible black one and a coupe blue both with sports exhaust and running gear packs and Brembos.

Im constantly repairing the ABS and Traction control systems on both of them, electrics are a weak point on them, if you do go for one get the later type with ally chassis not the old steel ones.

 

[E270 Owner]

I should add the XKR's are driven by my Dad and one of my brothers, I gave/loaned them to be used instead of collecting dust at the workshop.

They were both acquired due to customers being unable to pay for repairs that literally wrote them off.


Back to Mercs

I do like this one
