From SZ to AMG

Long time reader here and I figured it's about time I joined. After 14 years with a classic turbo Bentley I went looking for an S63. I couldn't find a nice enough W221 so I went a newer W222. Been absolutely astounded by it so far so maybe the newer gen was a good move. I'll never forget the sound of the M156 approaching redline though!

As my handle implies I have tripled down with MB:

2014 S63 AMG
2010 ML350 Bluetec
2009 SL550 "the Red Baron"

Good cars.

Any dramas yet with the ML350?

Nope - it came from a friend who has taken incredible care of it since new. Before I purchased it (Oct 2022), it had the US Diesel settlement changes applied, which replaced a huge list of items in the exhaust system and anything related to emissions. I was going to pass on the vehicle until I heard that this work was going to be done at no cost.

It's a gem and most people think it's new. It's that nice...
