You are looking here at the cheapest way into V8 AMG ownership - The W210 E55 AMG. One of the cars that helped establish AMG to the mainstream and make it the brand it is today. This will only go UP in value, as with all other naturally-aspirated super saloons of the 90s.
Reason for sale: I get my E39 M5 back from my specialist next week, and the bill will be rather eye-watering, hence I am selling this exactly as I bought it. I really can't justify taking this on, and my wife is already fed up with the amount of cars I own (and the money I spend on them).
Previous owner works for McLaren, and was a senior engineer on some of the AMG race cars a few years back. He maintained this car himself over the last few years. Serviced every 10k miles, including all 16 spark plugs.
Mechanically perfect - engine and gearbox are spot on. Starts first turn of the key, with a lovely V8 burble. No leaks. No over heating - gets to the operating temperature and stays there all day long.
M113 - 5.4 Litre - V8 - 380 BHP (Modifications) - 155 MPH (Limited)
Even AMG engineers believe that this was the most solid engine and gearbox combination that they have made - it really will take a battering and north of 300k miles is normal for one of these.
Mated to the solid 5 speed automatic transmission. Gear changes are as they should be in one of these, smooth and effortless. Gearbox oil and diff oil was renewed by previous owner every 10k miles (working at McLaren, he obviously had access to all the expensive fluids he required!).
Just had the Engine and Gearbox mounts replaced by AutoClass Mercedes of Milton Keynes (£300 bill).
Everything works as it should, apart from the PDC parking sensors (one sensor at fault). No warning lights on the dash.
Bodywork is what will need attention to spruce this old hot rod up. Boot lid, bonnet, front wings and rear arches have corrosion. Front wings were been painted in 2012, but have started bubbling again and the rust is coming through.
Interior is in good condition, with no rips or tears. The high quality leather has worn very well and matured with age. Memory seats adjust fine in all directions. Rear blind works as it should.
Comes with: 1 x Key / Mercedes Wallet / User Manuals / MOT Certificate / Bills & Receipts
Still awaiting logbook, as the car had a personalised registration removed just prior to when I purchased it.
This is strictly Sold as Seen, with no warranty given and / or implied. Car has been described honestly, and any viewing / inspection is welcome. Once sold, vehicle is 100% responsibility of the new owner.
Viewings and test drives are most welcome in accordance with my availability.
No large groups (you don't need to bring 5 people along to buy a car that's less than £4k), and please come at a decent hour where you can clearly see the car.
I'm too busy to entertain time wasters, silly offers or scammers. Anyone trying to pour dirty oil into the coolant will find themselves leaving with a very sore hand...
Cash on Collection / Instant Bank Transfer ONLY. No Delivery / Np Part Ex.
This is one of the cheapest E55 AMGs in the UK. Perfectly useable as is, or get the bodywork sorted and you have a sure fire future classic.
Located at my parent's place in Wellingborough, Northants, NN8 Post Code.
