This has just turned up for review for a week;



Any dos and don'ts from owners? Anything worth trying out with it?

This particular one comes with night vision which will be handy if I go hunting deer at night in it!?

Early impressions are that it's much quicker off the mark than the E63S we had a few weeks back but not as interesting. Interior is very good and looks great but it isn't overly comfortable.

That one must have been next in line.

I only ask because I had OU13XTN for a week, it too had night vision and wonder if it's the same car.

It's with someone else now but yes, I think it was the same. Cracking car, really impressed with how it gets the power down.

That's the thing that sticks with me about it. After going from an E63 into this for a week i couldn't help loading up the torque converter and letting rip, only once did i get wheel spin in a straight line and that was in the streaming wet. Like you say, cracking car.
