Selling my precious estate :(

I had a slight mishap on my flight to Vienna for a business trip: i got an epileptic seizure, first one since 2004. This means 6 months, no driving. Since i'm moving abroad soon anyway i decided to put my C63 up for sale. Gonna miss it. It's been my favorite car, which is ironic since it has had more problems than all my previous cars combined. Probably gonna end up with a new C63 in Austria...maybe a black series? See you later!

Thanks, this sucks serious donkey *****, not being able to drive, although i know it's for my, and especially others', protection. Just hope it sells quickly so that i don't have to look at it anymore and be reminded...

I'm sorry to hear about your health problems.

Are u selling the car as it is or are you parting it out?
I'm sure there are many car enthusiats (especially in Germany) who would love to get their hands on your KW DDC suspension and those HRE P40s

Glad you are fine, could have been worse. Nice to have been seizure free for so long. Maybe a med adjustment and no more, ever. Many people's seizure disorder improves with age.
Your Estate is my favorite on the forum. No Estates in the US or I'd have one. Something about the lines grabs me besides being useful for cyclists and large dog owners.

No, i'm not parting it out. The HRE's i'll keep and use for the SLS, Porsche, C63 BS or whatever's coming next.

Sorry to see you let go your beautiful car Jycke!! That facelifted estate in your link looks even more amazing... wowwwww!

As for your HRE, you might as well sell them cuz they will not fit your future cars (SLS, Porsche or C63BS).

Nope, our offset is way too high for the BS... our rear wheels too narrow at 19x9.5 , the BS would probably need 19x11 LOL .

They will fit but they wont look good.. too sunk in.

Yes, as long as i have 6 seizure free months. I don't know what went wrong, like i said i was seizure free since 2004, and that was because of excessive use of alcohol, nowadays when i "party" i have a maximum rule of 5 portions...i appreciate driving more than hangovers.
