Anyone know what kleemann did to the e500 when they modified the car to an «E50K. The car im talking about vent to kleemann when it was completly new and got a 400 000 dkr upgrade.
anyone know what they did to the motor/trans and other things?

 

To the M113, they added Kleemann Kompressor, mid length headers and their custom camshafts.

It was a very popular upgrade with the W210 430/55 cars. They had the same package for the W211 E500 too but not much takers as the E55 was a more sensible choice.

 

yes i figured that Since i havent found any information about them online, so i wondered if they did anything to the suspension, trasmission
sinca according to the seller it was spent 400 000 dkr on it when it was new

 

Kleemann did make a one off jacked up wagon more like a Subaru Outback with the kompressor tuning package. But it was only one car.

They didn’t modify the transmission on their tuning packages, only a suspension lowering module.

In Denmark, it usually costs more than the US for their tuning packages. Moreover they did have body kits and wheels. Probably the one you are talking about has the full kit.

 

Thanks so much for the reply, i was wondering since the car looked completly stock on the outside ecept rear skirts. So wondering what the 400k was spent on.

Does anyone know if its worth it? the price of the k50 is 200 000. 60 000km (20k) usd approx
For reference an e55 here is 350 000-400 000 for a good one with low milage. 35-40k usd approx.
but an e500 is only 150 000 15k usd

 

Market prices vary for these cars in every country. From what you say, you’re getting the K50 for about half the price of an E55. I would say, go for it. Kleemann has a solid reputation for their packages and you can see in this forum too that it was a preferred choice for many members here and all have them had good things to say about it.

Kleemann has been slapping on superchargers on Mercedes cars since the late 90s and they have good expertise with their packages. They are nice people to deal with if you ever need support.

Post some pictures here of the car.

 

Yea no doubt about it that kleemann knows what they are doing, but i was just thinking about if it was worth it to spend the extra cash and buy an e55 or e500 and do the conversion myself.
The reason the seller sells it cheap is because of what he did tp the interior, it used to be carbon fibre

 

From the pics, I see that it has the Kleemann body kit. It’s a very subtle kit. The interior trimmed in white is to ones taste, I personally think it looks out of place.

I would recommend you to get this only if this has the Kleemann supercharger kit on it. It’s not going to be the same animal as the E55, but still a very nice car with close to same level of power as an E55.

Check with the seller on what’s been done on the car. I’d it has an Kleemann exhaust, wheels, lowering kit etc. it just makes it more attractive value.
