SUMMARY
Beautifully built, very well-specified, AMG-dusted, muscle-bound small estate in excellent condition.
DESCRIPTION
- The C55 signified a return to AMG’s V8 roots, after barely a three-year flirtation with a supercharged V6
- Powered by the AMG 5.4-litre V8 (from the CLK 55 AMG) and offering 367bhp, 376lb/ft of torque, 0-60 in 4.9 seconds and 155mph
- There was a limited UK-market for a small estate with 5.4-litres and consequently these are very rare over here
- On offer here is a high-specification right-hand drive Black Edition, imported from Japan and UK-registered on 01/09/2022
- It's finished in Diamond Black with a black leather interior and a black carpet set
- The car, although a Japanese import, does have a full history to back up the 48,500 miles travelled and also a bill from M-B Nottingham Specialists for just shy of £6,000 in July of this year, including a full service, air-conditioning service, new coil packs, fuel pump SAM unit and a gearbox service
- The C55 marked a small but perceptible shift towards a sharper, more sporting focus, that set it closer to the M3 than any previous AMG hot rod C-Class, making this dual-purpose medium-sized estate a bit of a 'supercar'. Your Golden Retriever will be impressed
