  • I just sold my s class. I miss it allot! Not many people know about this generation as much as I can research. Watching this video I have to say everything here is a fact. Currently looking to get another s class so if anyone has the 6.2 AMG in the UK hit me up!

  • Excellent report but I believe there were issues with the plastic swirl flaps in the induction manifold of my 2006 W221 350V6 petrol. I was told that they can break up and be ingested by the engine and cause major problems

  • Some of the l/100 km numbers seem oddly high compared to the MPG numbers.🤔

    • Just did a bit of maths and the ones I’ve checked seem OK. Maybe it’s just because I’m using Imp (U.K.) gallons? That are bigger than U.S gallons (4.54 litres = 1 U.K./Imperial gallon) Or is it the S63? There was so much debate on mpg that when converting to L/100km I just took the middle of the range (17mpg)? 👍

    • Be prepared to replace the radiator. Replace the struts very, very soon. If you wait over a month to replace the struts, you will have a low rider. Don’t add 22 inch wheels or they will crack over 1 or 2 pot holes. When opening the hood, close it by holding the hood over the headlights. Don’t close it by holding the grille or the grille will crack or break. Don’t open the sun roof all the time or it will make noises when opening. This car maintenance isn’t expensive but it’s not cheap either. I’ve had a 08 s 63 Amg and 2011 s 63 Amg. Totally different cars

    • Only bad thing is that you have to order your parts all the time if you live in the US but reliable. Especially if you take care or it. Oil and tune ups on time will do that
