Did you have a BMW or Audi previously? You're in a Mercedes Benz now, so don't park inconsiderately across a clear zone. :alien::alien:

Too right Keith. He should be diagonal across three parking spaces instead.

Remove them all, front wing badges as well and the chrome strip along the bottom of the doors

Looks good I particularly like the shape in white.

Still looking to buy a coupe but erring towards the dark side with a B*W 435i coupe or grand coupe, but the E400 coupe is entering my price range at £20k and the E350cdi coupe is still of interest so you never know.

Sorry I’ll get my coat, lol

I will just point out there never was an AMG in that shape.

Must, admit I'm not a fan of badges on cars that don't belong, so probably coming off, but what's your thoughts on the Mercedes AMG line cars, that Mercedes make, are they entitled to an AMG badge

Debadged my AMG Line with the exception of the tailgate star. Previous W221 was debadged too. Not a fan of badges on Mercs tbh, get it orf. :alien:

Fair enough:) i have de- badged previous cars and de- rubbing stripped too, i presume they are just stuck on, so the old hair dryer and fishing line trick would be ok ?

I think M-B have devalued the AMG brand by putting creating 'AMG Line' and badging them with the three letters. Just my opinion.

Nice looking car, I'll never understand the point of the AMG badge when it represents styling. I would debadge and also lose the chrome. I took JBell's advice and mine does look better.

I'm not a fan of rubber bands on oversized wheels but I know I'm in a minority group.
What size wheels has it got?

19" alloys, 8.5" front, 9.5" rear, actually the tyres are not to bad at all, it rides really well, I have had cars with rubber bands as you call them, now they were harsh.
