I've had my ML63 for around 17 months (one of the longest periods I've owned a car in recent years), and it's a fantastic vehicle. It's quick, comfortable, carries everything, was great in winter when the roads where harsher, just a brilliant car.

Anyways, although it's a brilliant car I'm kind of tempted for a change - I'm into cars and get bored easily lol! I was considering an E63S and with some of the deals on the standard E63's I've seen on forums in the last few months, thought potentially it might even save me money.

My thoughts are I could potentially trade the ML in for a new E63S, and because of the deals around, save money and get chance to try something new.

Is this unrealistic? Am I best off waiting for the end of the 3yr PCP terms (I bought on the 4.4% Merc finance offer they did in 2012, was a wicked offer at the time), or would it be possible do you recon to trade in, and actually save money based on an E63S being lower list price than the ML63 and Merc wanting to shift metal?

Main reason for thinking about it is that the S model looks a laugh and I don't need quite as much space anymore.

I take it yours is a W164 ML63? 5.5 litre one?

If that is the case I reckon you will be looking at getting around £53-56k back on it as a trade in.
