Haha - a lot of hate towards the baby amg.

In regards to rattles, my car genuinely has none. It did have a rattle from the rear wing but that’s been sorted under warranty.

Thanks @ wing commander

Good luck selling it.
Build quality aside. The dash layout is miles nicer than a Macan turbo.. bar the seats (if u have 18ways)

I should know, I used to own one

Personally, I really don't like the screens and lighting. It must be like driving the Blackpool illuminations.
I personally like them but maybe that’s me. Night time driving is always nice and the screens are fully configurable for tyre pressures, boost, oil temps etc. One of the nicer interiors I’ve been in

Very small market of potential buyers on here !

Looks smart enough though and I also thought the inside of my AMG E Class was one of the best aspects - despite the faults/rattles!

I'm surprised that "the 2.0 Macan is Crap Col" hasn't pointed out that it isn't a proper AMG though because it doesn't have the proper AMG V8 mind

Twin 10” screens
Interior ambient lighting
Leather upper dash
Upgraded sound system

Additionally the car has,

Factory aero package
19 inch wheels
Night package
Red / black interior

I’m the second owner and the vehicle was purchased approved used. Mileage is approx 14,000. Cars just had 4 new Michelin pilot sport 4S tyres fitted - MO1 spec, also the car has been serviced recently by Mercedes (FMBSH)

The vehicle is immaculate inside and out with the exception of the front passenger side wheel ( curbing on lip ). I’ve been quoted £100 to have this repaired.

A Mercedes health check was carried out and everything came back green. The only amber was the front wipers which I’m happy to have replaced.
Vehicle is hpi clear and ready for new owner.

Price wise I’m after £35,000 which makes this the cheapest car in the uk for mileage and spec.. I’d be open to a px on some type of exciting low mileage, high spec Porsche. 2016 onwards.
Did you get fed up with the rattles?
Play nice
If you look down the posters car list you will see he owned one so is clearly talking from experience !

My E class with the same dash had the same issues

I don’t see an issue with it - not everybody has two Porsches so this maybe a nice second car for someone.

To be honest the Macan is only a posh Audi anyway so we could let Audi drivers in too

Worst car I ever owned. Absolute pile of dog shite and sounded like a hoover. My step dad also bought one and his was also a poorly built pile of dog shite. His has also gone! Even the fuel flap wouldn’t open and close properly. 😂
