Muchly enjoying my new (to me) C32 AMG at the mo....

One of the most underrated performance mercs in my opinion, and really subtle for the power on offer.

Just picked this up so its new to us. 2008 ML500 with the 5.5 V8 lump and 100k kms on the clock.

Trouble is, it's way too fast for SWMBO, she won't drive it anymore so it will be for sale soon unfortunately...

I never get this?

Have you pointed out you don't have to press the accelerator down all the way?

TBH, it terrifies me too. I've had 9 TVR's in the last 12 yrs & this thing is head & shoulders quicker than any of them. Remarkable bit of kit.

Same, my other half's daily driver is the C63 estate, she doesn't drive it anywhere near it's capabilities but enjoys that it's quite quick.

It is a 280. The MOT has expired because I can't get out at the moment because I have a spinal problem and am waiting for an operation. The car has only done 59k. I was going to sell it but, where would I find another one in that condition?

Looks like it's been kept in a time capsule

Lovely car.
Completely O/T but good luck with the op.
Had a disc out 3 years ago and have never looked back.

Thanks mate. Should be quite soon.

The new company car has just arrived.

The other half now thinks her C63 is dated and wants to replace that too.
