The Appeal

The W210 E55 AMG Estate is one of the most compelling super-estates of the late 1990s. Combining a naturally aspirated 5.5-litre V8 with the versatility of the estate body and the sporting edge of the Avantgarde specification, it offered a breadth of ability that few rivals could match, and these cars have only grown in desirability as well-preserved examples become increasingly scarce.

This particular car has remained with a single registered keeper since new and has been exclusively maintained by the supplying main dealer throughout its life, lending real confidence to its 53,800-mile history. The Brilliant Silver Metallic bodywork has been ceramic coated for ongoing protection, and the vendor states the exterior appears free from notable defects. Inside, the Anthracite AMG leather cabin with wood inlays is described by the vendor as being in very good order. Reported to run and drive without fault, it comes supported by a thorough history file including the service book, both keys, old MOTs and various invoices.
