tooquicktostop Posted June 20, 2009 Share Posted June 20, 2009 Needing a car to get me through the next 6 months before France and not decided which "special" LHD car to take there I brought a E55 AMG Merc today, took it for a test drive and was sold, awesome power for such a big car and such a comfortable place to be, will get some pics up if anyone interested when I pick it up Wednesday Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Abz Posted June 20, 2009 Share Posted June 20, 2009 Nice, is this one of the V8 supercharged ones? I believe the E55 is the V8 Supercharger one which was competing against the M5? Was something like 470 odd BHP!?!? Yes we would love to see pictures! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tooquicktostop Posted June 24, 2009 Author Share Posted June 24, 2009 Well just got it home after picking it up and I have to say I am so impressed with the drive and power, very happy indeed for a old car Will be having it detailed and a few bits and bobs, it has the original sat nav which is quite cool and even a video player in the boot along with a 12 cd changer All the electrics work and there is A LOT OF THEM !!!! I would have thought it would give a BPU Supra a good run for its money as the torque is awesome for a heavy car rubbish pics but its all I have time for Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
