      @@Dexspic Maintenance is low. I have owned mine for 11 years. The engine is bulletproof. It is a Clk Ammg 55 coupe.The car needs to be treated to stop rust. Electrics and ignition problems are the only thing to watch. The heating system gets issues. Generally as long as the oil is changed the cars runs fine. I get 32km to 1 gallon round town and 45 km on a motorway run. Apart from tyres and brakes and the odd suspension part there is very little to worry about. My coupe has done 120000km and is worth £8000 I would guess. It is a lot of car for the money!

    Well well well its my car again a year on!
    Anyone interested in me bringing this back next summer for a proper top speed run with Max and Martijn?
    Oh and since this video the gearbox has had it's valvebody rebuilt and conductor plate replaced. Night and day difference in responsiveness.
    If people want it I will consider the detour to make it happen! 😊

    Real V8 sound rather than the unidentifiable generic noise of modern (european) V8s.

    Wrong track chosen! Imagine you are driving AMG and you hardly hit 260 on autobahn cz brakes!

      Give enough space and it will reach 290.
      Not that anyone cares :)

    It's insane how much faster cars have become over the last 20 years. My pickup is faster than this AMG. Bananas
