Default Mercedes c55 or e55 anyone on here owned either??

Always loved my Mercs, has anyone driven a c55 or and e55 and which do you think is the better all rounder? Both lovely cars in my opinion and really fancy one.

worked for merc 7 years and driven both, c55 is a rare car only seen a few, more 211 e55s about, c55 n/a and e55 supercharged, i think the e55 is the better car and puts its power down better

Ive learnt something there as presumed they both had the same engine.

the c32 are a cracking car too and again quite rare, early 203 c class can suffer badly from rust, c55s are the facelift and seem to have better bodies and better dashboard the old w202 c43 is a rare car too, and a quick car
