C55 AMG owner saying hi!

[trando]

Hi

I've had my C55 for almost 12 months and I love it.... although it's not great in the snow!

Mine is the only one that I have seen in the UK that's not silver or black...

Any other C55 owners welcome to get in touch.

I'm sure I'll figure out how to post pics in due course!!

When posting, click on Upload an Image (beta) button. It's straight-forward to upload photos.

[trando]

Thanks! Here you go....

Here's another:

Nice - luxury saloon with power to match (you can also upload more than 1 photo per post)!

Friend had C180 on R plate. Done over 150k, yet suspension was so smooth.

[trando]

yeah - sorry about that. Posted the first one then realised I had more... I'll put the others up in one post

Is that the standard exhaust system?

Not seen one in black before, looks good.

"Not seen one in black before, looks good."




It's not black - it's tanzanite blue!!

[S3_Graham]

how does it compare to the C32 supercharged one?? Other than the noise difference....

[trando]

Couldn't say as I haven't driven a C32... the C32 is an older model.

As far as the C55 is concerned, there's nothing like the grunt of a V8 and the noise it makes is highly addictive. It's insanely fast in a straight line and handles ok - although not in the snow... Plus I like the discrete look.

And if anyone is interested look in the 'for sale' section on my website.

Hello chap. My daily driver is currently a slightly breathed on CLK500, although I am becoming a little too used to the grunt & somehow keep flicking towards the AMG parts of the various used car websites.......

[AyBee]

Looks lovely, but I'm pretty sure the reason I haven't seen another Tanzanite blue one in the UK is because I wouldn't be able to tell the difference between it and black! Is it more distinctive in real light than the photo is showing?

[trando]

Yeah - the light in my pics isn't great. If you see it in the flesh next to a black car, it very definitely looks blue!

[Alfahorn]

I like these, very stealthy.

[rb5230]

that black one does look nice.
