I'm looking to get into a pre facelift E63s 17-19 range wagon.

Can anyone advice whether the UK cars came with adaptive lights as standard? Is there anyway to tell by just looking at the headlights whether they have upgraded headlights?

From my research I think seat ventilation/massage and steering wheel heating weren't options on the UK car. I would also like a car with carbon ceramics for the lack of brake dust and service life.

Anything else I should particularly look for? I'm looking to get into a low mileage car that will be a long term keeper.

Adaptive headlights standard on the AMG. The e-brochure for the relevant model year is generally available to download so just do a Google search then you can get a comprehensive list of what's standard and what was available as an option. Then when you do find a car use an online VIN decoder to confirm the spec.

Can't think of anything obvious to look out for outside of the usual car buying diligence. If from a main dealer, should come with a 2 year approved used warranty.

Lights standard. Correct on the seats. I’d look for comfort seats - much better to live with than perf seats.

Ceramics don’t come up very often.

Love my 2019 wagon - absolute beast. Just come back from a skiing trip - she did 24mpg over 1700miles whilst annihilating every car on the road.
