I paid £3800 for my E55 AMG, it one owner with a full dealer history but seriously high mileage (240,000 now) and has rusty doors, drives lovely though, not sure you could go faster for less money without mods. :)

@@popuptoaster In 2017 I bought a 91 miata for about 3500 eur which was a good deal at the time with no rust and all maintenance freshly done. Now you get for the same price either a rustshitbox or one that has an engine failure. Gotta pay around 5k or more for a good one

There are companies that sort that sticky plastic out and they're absolutely amazing. Considering that the leather is absolutely immaculate, if you sort out the rust, clear the foggy headlights, and sort out the plastic, you'll make a good profit. It'll immediately be worth a lot more. The air suspension incredibly isn't knackered! Amazing.
