Merc E55 AMG
I've had a look at one of these today and i thought it looked like quite a lot of car for the money. It's T reg so getting old i know but does anyone have any experiences of them or know much about them ?

i had a e320 cd1 w210 model it was riddled with electrical faults > swoped for a subaru no faults as yet .
make sure it has full service history every thing on these cars are an arm and a leg .
i was quoted 1000 pound for an alternator so be careful ,

If its anything like other AMG's it will be awesome. AMG's smooth ride is like its hovering, and they go over speed bumps at speed as if they dont even exist.
Awesome machines AMG's are. So fast and comfortble, instead of just fast like a M.
Ive had no problems what so ever with my latest gen pre-facelift E320 estate

Fast,they pile on speed very well once moving,quite hard to pull away quick from a standstill though i found. Nice engine note, they handle quite well for a big barge, stabability control interfers quite a bit though when pushing on (can be turned off 
). I found the ride to be quite hard,the setup is quite stiff and they're on 18s with pretty low profile tyres so to be expected really. Fuel consumption is quite good considering the size, engine and weight of them, think i got 15-20mpg av.
