Yet has a standard M113 V8 engine under the bonnet:
The M155 V8 in the 5.4 N/A AMGs of the period look like this:
I'm not sure that they always do. The picture you post is of a w210 E55 AMG. My recollection is the w220 has a standard air box, albeit usually with an AMG badge clagged onto the front portion, just aft of the star. The clips on these front portions often break however, and it is entirely possible that a replacement would not have the AMG badge on it. Alternatively, it may be that the badge just came off. See pic below. The only way of telling for certain would be to check the engine number as stamped on the engine.The M155 V8 in the 5.4 N/A AMGs of the period look like this:
This seller doesn't seem to have managed to get the car into one photo, but it's only £1k and I like the colour and leather. The wheels would need changing for proper ones.

Marmite colour. Seems cheap for miles and apparent condition? Think seen before?
46k on the clock and huge history.

I'm thinking about buying a 190 for some reason, something like this: http://www.carandclassic.co.uk/car/C552457
For use alongside the 300E and to make it feel a bit faster and well equipped in comparison!
Seen that one before. Nice colour and unusual colour tex interior - with optional front armrest, but carb - no thanks. Would definitely want an 'E'For use alongside the 300E and to make it feel a bit faster and well equipped in comparison!
Did you follow-up on it 0a?
ETA - just seen the location; quite a road trip, even by your standards!

Bargeists
I have, hopefully, sold my S430 (never sold till the money is in the bank!) so obviously I need a replacement - well strictly I don't because I have 4 other cars, but lets not want and need get get in the way of frivolity!
Ownership of the Merc (my first) have been totally painless, only expenditure has been tyres & MOT (no advisories) and the price I've agreed for the sale means I've actually made a couple of hundred quid (not inclusive of fuel!)
In the past I always discounted Mercs but this one has kind of changed my thinking
So if anyone has any suggestions I'm all ears, although no R129s tempting as some of them are at the prices they are, I already have the 928 which is more practical for my use.
And no Audis either I'm afraid, I've had the use of various models over the years from A3 Tdi's to A8s and driven a few RS models, as much as I appreciate the build quality, the driving experience always left me feeling a bit meh.

The cheapest XJR you can find. An experiment.
I do like a Jag, have owned a SIII, XJ40 (Daimler) and X300.The cheapest XJR you can find. An experiment.
What are the X350 versions like?
Arguably slightly confused, as they are MILES more modern than they'd have occupants and onlookers believe. I believe this is normally attributed to the Americans' Mr Darcy Van Dyke view of what a British luxury car should be. Your Lordship.
Whilst they ride as well as their contemporary competitors, perhaps they aren't as 'just right' as X300 / X308. The best bit is the 2-300kg advantage they hold over everything else in the sector.

I wouldn't really mind about collecting from Brighton - I collected the 300e from Exeter. Fly down to Gatwick, jump on the train and a pleasant shakedown run of 467 miles on the way back sounds fine
That W124 4 door looks amazing and it has been here before. I can't even think about looking at it given how much I have spent on mine though.

2.6 manual in taxi colours with 126k. So wrong I like it.

PH thinks my link was a private advert. Well done everyone.
I thought it was because I said "Ooof" and PH thought I was levelling a homophobic insult at you for not buying it. Too much Dailymailing.PH thinks my link was a private advert. Well done everyone.
