2008 performance pack car so meant to be 487 standard ....previous owner said he had it remapped but theres no receipt in the extensive service history to prove it..... standard everything down to the genuine air filters apart from secondary decat pipes....well maintained by previous owners, the main dealer told me its got one of the best service histories theyve seen and its never been late for a scheduled service ...

i know it does feel faster than the one i crashed last year and that one definitely had a remap but that was a standard 457bhp car with a remap....

i just had it serviced with new plugs....also had the transmission serviced recently ....injectors were checked recently and 1 was replaced at main dealer and ive only used vpower in it in the 8 months ive owned it ...also just had an oil cooler replaced after a stone damaged the original one and always using main dealer parts....

....any guestimates...? my guess is 502bhp.....

 

Is it a charged c63? I go 520 🤣

 

6.2 V8 n/a.....

 

457

Hopefully its over the 500

 

Oh ok because it’s N/A I go 495bhp

 

cancel those thoughts....just burst a back tyre and cracked an alloy on a big lump of debris on the motorway........its been an expensive week after just paying 1700 yesterday to replace a transmission oil cooler (road debris damage again...) ....change the spark plugs and replace a front camber arm....ill need to cancel that rolling road session.....

 

Cooler must be fancy at that price jeezo

 

478 for the transmission oil cooler..... Plus more transmission oil.... 308 for the suspension arm and 8 plugs at 12 quid each plus an assortment of washers and bolts all from the main dealer and 6.5 hours of labour at the Mercedes specialist at 65 an hour...

 

What RR were you planning to use?

 

Raceworx at Houston industrial estate Livingston.....
Don't know them... Never been before.... Mercedes specialist mentioned them....

 

I think they used to be called A1 automotive my son used to work opposite and they always had nice stuff around, owned by Aiden Moffat touring car driver I believe.

 

That's the same one.... There a1 automotive signs around the place as well.

 

So what was the result?

 

Postponed it after I hit road debri ripping my back tyre sidewall and slightly cracking the rim.....
Be all good for this weekend though when I've got a quarter mile day at Crail raceway place booked...
