    Fancy my AMG wagon?

    Fully loaded, nav, bose, leather, 18's xenons, power fold mirrors, heated electric seats, etc etc etc

    360 bhp 3.2 litre twin screw supercharger

    Don't want anything like 8k for it just passed test, new brakes, tyres and lots of tax.

    I don't want to sell it, but i have bought an e30 M3 so one of my cars does need to go and as this is the one that will sell, its drawn the short straw, need to pull my finger out and get it advertised.

    Where have you been lurking Unders, not see you in ages?

    Looks very nice - how does it compare to E46 M3 - on paper similar but I guess very different?

    Very different machine, its more practical for a kick off. Engine is lovely, huge torque all the time, no effort just lots of go with the water cooled charge and twinscrew giving no discernible step in power. Ultimately its very comfortable and very very quick though you need to be in the right gear as with all auto boxes it can be a little dimwitted when kicking down multiple gears, on the plus side its a genuine amg box not something lifted from a C320 so it has locking clutches on all gears bar 1st.

    Its a lovely old thing, very comfy and great for family duties, but does not have the immediacy of the m3 in terms of driving experience more of a comfortable sledgehammer. If your interested your welcome to have a look/spin.

    This is the e30
