A monster V8 for £20K - worth a look. Costs 3 out of 5 When Driving Miss Daisy you get 27 MPG but drive hard and its 18. Rips through rear tyres quickly. Avoid 19 inch. Driving 4 out of 5 A good balance of sport / cruising but does not excel in either. Performance 5 out of 5 Gut wrenching thrust and a wonderful exhaust not. Power linear and never gives up (it changes down to 3rd at 90mph in kick down - where permitted of course). Reliability 4 out of 5 Electric Seat fuses kept blowing. Cracked front suspension brackets. Image 4 out of 5 You almost want it to be more in your face as unless you are a petrol head you might not notice / know what AMG is all about. Comfort 3 out of 5 Long journeys do start to hurt if you are a big chap but light ones will drive comfortably for hours. Do not buy with 19 inch wheels as your jaw will crack if you aren't on the smoothest of tarmac.

Problems Bodywork Prone to stone chips - cheap paint job? Engine Awesome - no issues. Gearbox In winter could be clunky for a while until warmed up.
