AMG? Diesel? Can that be right?

[timontour74]

it has comand

i've driven it and it goes well, the brabus kit on says 217bhp

[timontour74]

i think the amg refers to the body kit, AMG wheels and matts?

Found it, AMG is apparently now a trim level? Confusion much.

Parkers quoted figures - 8.2 seconds to 60 and 167 BHP, OP make sure you have a dyno reading for that 217 BHP from the exhaust or else I feel you may be getting swindled. I could be completely wrong however.

AMG refers to trim level

Brabus refers to chip upgrade at claimed +40bhp

OP guess you are paying about £10K or find another.

That's the 2012 with the twin turbo engine.

All the 220s have the same BHP and 0-60 as far as I can see?
