Sorry to post again about the C63 but today I did my first long run post goin through 1k miles. Portsmouth to Cardiff to see my old mum!!

Jesus this thing had loosened up. I did the same run 200 miles in and now you can really tell the difference. Pops, bangs and a thumbs up from some petrol head in a rover!!!

I honestly smiled for every 2hrs and 15 mins each way. Awesome awesome

If you don't own one. Buy one. This is truly a remarkable machine.

Happy driving all and stay safe!

Nice car! I work for a MB dealer and I honestly think they are the best car that MB have made for many, many years! Everytime I drive one (It includes the C63 saloon), it never ever fails to bring a smile to my face.. Enjoy thumbup

I haven't driven one but was admiring one when I was at Mercedes having my SLK serviced. Trouble is in Australia, and I think it was a used model, they were asking about $170'000. How much are they in the U.K. ?

Mine comes 4th October and I ordered on 24th May (originally ordered 7th March, but that's another story!).

However I reckon mine may be a wee bit earlier as I'm already past the date where I can change the spec.

Also i went for the high gloss black trim. I've already seen the car and the piano black style trim looks fab compared to the the ali. Didn't want to spend £1600 on the carbon fibre but the piano black matches very nicely with the gear surround

I think MB are producing many coupes in comparison to estates (which is what I've ordered).
