Zedrush Posted May 13, 2011 Share Posted May 13, 2011 Finally got a runaround car from local dealer, as got fed up filling at every petrol garage every other day, so porsche is weekends, and this is my daily drive. Wasnt sure at first but after couple of weeks Ive grown to love it, its a 350E CDI Merc Amg with panaramic roof: you know me cant leave a car standard so did some minor changes. Speaking to a respected tuning company to have Brabus chip to book in for remap, and there seems to be a growing consensus that Mercedes did not advertise the true value of the BHp value of this car. They advertise as 230ps when it really is hitting 260-270ps??? Ive done some research and seems to be proven with rolling road. Why would they underplay its power? They said that I will have close to 320BHP and over 500Lbs of torque Hope this is true without engine blow up hope you guys like, wont be to every ones taste but its a great little runaround Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Willy P Posted May 13, 2011 Share Posted May 13, 2011 Well, it's no pink corsa but nearly as good. You have an AMG merc for a rnuaround, clearly the recession has hit you hard Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zedrush Posted May 13, 2011 Author Share Posted May 13, 2011 liking the black highlights on the back (AMG, badge, "spoiler") are they standard?

Ebized Posted May 13, 2011 Share Posted May 13, 2011 BHP/PS understatement is like Subaru who were known to do that - helps keep the cars in a better insurance bracket Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neilp Posted May 13, 2011 Share Posted May 13, 2011 That's beautiful mate! Almost as stunning as your zed that you had! If you get a chance can you chuck a couple of daylight photos up as I don't think the dark does the car justice Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
