AMGs are perfectly OK to drive everyday, why wouldn’t you ? It’s as reliable as any other Mercedes.

I used to do the commute in mine, before lockdown. Now I work from home.

I bought mine to use as my daily driver, I traded my e240 daily driver in on it, I have cover over 33,000mls in mine since I bought it and 6 months of that time it wasn't used because we were away on holiday. I kind of don't use it as much now because my weekly wage my wife gives me dropped from £100 per week to now £60 a week, so I do like to have a little money left over to live on such as food and drink instead of the 55 having it all. So bought the e320cdi, but that's turning out much more expensive to run than the 55 :mad:

Yes I have done 40,000 miles in my SL55 AMG, I wonder if the OP is referring to fuel and servicing costs ? It depends how you drive of course, but if you want 60 MPG, buy a Toyota Starlet, (That's what the MIL drives). If you own an older AMG like we do, find a good Independent specialist, they will help keep the car on the road for a reasonable outlay.

Used to have a C63...
Yup, my C63 was my only car, so daily it was. Blumin loved it, just stopped looking too closely at fuel bills.

I don't use my SL500AMG as a daily, before you say anything it is an AMG as it says so on the wheels ;)

I used to daily my E63, supremely reliable and a very fun commute
Neighbours hated me though

Sold - 2021 CLA 35 Premium.
Suitably changed for you.
That's much better...and even matches your photo. :)
Only thing I would have done differently is capitalise the L in "Ml63"

I have been using my C55 as a daily driver, but it's going to a weekend car for a while now as I am driving an old 190d as my daily instead, just because.

My E63 is my daily.
But since I have retired, it doesn't get much mileage put on it.
I've only done around 600 miles since it was serviced last September:(
