Knowing these cars as I do and how well built they are would you pay £20k for it?

Interesting spec from the last of the marque available with any spec you wanted but no sunroof, COMAND and contrary to the ad ventilated seats


If anyone wanted one to keep it might be worth considering - the last of the EU5 cars

Saw an E63, last of the pre facelift ones for £25k, prices are strong but NOT that strong

Probably a good time to buy an AMG petrol prices must be hitting sales at the moment but if you take a long view fuel prices will drop again

Very poor advert all round really and fairly typical of most traders who don’t know the marque well

Prices are strong, 2013 facelift with 85k on the clock for £25k

£24k


£25k


The one you posted is way overpriced in comparison to this one


11k on the clock does not make me want to pay £6k more and on a Diesel that is not good either, they need using and some long runs

Not sure low mileage cars like this are such a good buy. It used to be said many years ago that a second hand buy from a doctor was one of the worst. This was back in the days when they did house calls! The engine only did short journeys, never warmed up properly and, in consequence, the bores suffered excessive wear.
I know bore linings are a lot better now but you'd still have to wonder how far this car has ever ventured from home and whether it's ever had a chance to reach proper operating temperatures.
