Just joined after finding your forums. I am purchasing a Nov 2014 E350 AMG Sport Coupe on Monday, which has two documented services and only 11.5k miles on the clock. It does look great in Grey..
she's moving homes on Monday!
So mechanically and cosmetically she is A1, but never having owned a MB of any description before I am unsure of what to look for. For example, I know I should be getting two keys and presumably a locking wheel nut, but are there any other bits and bobs that should come with the car that could easily be missed by a non-MB car dealer?
Oh and while I am at it, how easy is it to check on full spec for the actual car? Do I need to go into a dealer to get this? And finally, can I find if there are any recalls on this model?
Cheers all and thanks for your input.

Reason: to add more questions
I think there are plenty of sites that will take a VIN and let you know what was equipped on that car. I can't think of anything off the top of my head as far as bits and pieces to check for. The only thing that comes to mind as far as recalls, is to get the rotors checked. Some of us had some shuddering on braking, and MB replaced them.
Thanks both. Dealer included a MB generated list of options with the documentation so that is sorted.
No brake judder on the ride home, all very taught and literally it is like a new car with so few miles on the clock. Just working my way through all the functions. One thing I can't seem to find is how to dim the sat nav screen. I know there is some sort of automatic system based on ambient light, but it was too bright during the drive home. Found the instrument cluster lighting control but this doesn't adjust the command screen...any ideas?

go to settings in the comand system. There should be a setting in there.
