    Anyone take a guess what this car with this spec would have cost back in 2008?

    Well north of €100k, if you put the details in the VRT calculator it will give the original price of that spec, it won't include any extras that were ordered from the factory.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,715 ✭✭✭traco


    A lot of extras on that. I have the UK price list and the rear entertainment system was GBP£3,200
    TV tuner 820
    Electric rear seat 1,120
    Passion leather 2,100
    Wood leather steering wheel 460
    Ventilated front and rear seats 1,330
    Parktronic 605

    So close to 10k GBP on those few bits. It would take ages to go through but I suppose you could add another 10k in bits and bobs.

    In Ireland if you were to spec those with our VAT and VRT system they would be substantially more.

    I know this is way over budget, but these two are being sold by the same individual, nearly a copy and paste on the description

    https://www.donedeal.ie/view/26045911

    https://www.donedeal.ie/view/26045825

    He was previously selling the W221 with the cls wheels.

    They’ve been up on various fb marketplaces by the same profile.

    I had an e65 up a few days ago for €2k and he absolutely hounded me about it, rang from about 5 different numbers in 30 minutes.

    Five of them showed up to look at it in a Merc V class at half 8 in the evening, had to tell them basically to fcuk off because I had no one else there with me at the time.

    It’s a bad buying tactic, I think the absolute maximum that should ever go to buy a car is two people. Prospective buyer and a second opinion.

    Agreed, but they knew what they were up to.

    The old "oil in the coolant reservoir" scam ? :mad:

    What were they up to? Other than 5 people being fairly intimidating?

    As above, they put a drop of oil in the expansion tank or up the exhaust and claim the head gasket/turbo is gone and offer you buttons for the car.

    A few of them will distract you at one end of the car while the others do their thing.

    Id say 140k plus. A diesel S Class would have been touching 100k even back then im sure.

    Guess again! Checked a price list from Sept 2008 and a new S500 L was €164,000 rrp.

    That car with extra’s listed plus met in the road would have been approx €195,000

    Fairly serious depreciation per kilometre

    How much was the base s320 back then?

    S320 CDI was 111k, LWB was an extra 10k


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,502 ✭✭✭ofcork


    S63 was around 210k then and S65 around 320k that S500 was huge money with the extras.

    In Sept 2008 it was 339k list for an S65 and you’d be sure not a single one was delivered with standard spec


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,502 ✭✭✭ofcork


    100k extra for 4 cylinders more and a turbo with a smaller engine!!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,691 ✭✭✭✭Idbatterim


    S63 s65 go for a pittance in the uk, the w221 ...

    Savage maintenance costs reason why id say moreso on the V12.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,715 ✭✭✭traco


    S65 is the base engine of a Pagani Huarya or whatever you call it. That Merc V12 is one of the great engines of our time


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 262 ✭✭E36Ross


    Before I deal with the dreaded DoneDeal dreamers and 5 lads turning up in a Vito.

    I have a 2006 S320CDi (W220) NCT 2/21 & Taxed until June!!

    Asking €3,300

    PM me and ill give you a full honest description.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,653 ✭✭✭Voodoomelon


    Any pics?

    I was blessed with a sale earlier this week, listed a 318Ci with a nicely done advert at midnight before bed, car was gone and cash in my hand at 10am!

    was it a facelift and m sport? they look the bit and at 2L its not much tax for the good looks... just saw it in the boardsies for sale thread. Had a 2000 318ci myself. the bhp is disappointing for a 1.9... I also found the accelerator peddle so heavy...

    I had 2 of these myself a 2000 318i SE with 118bhp I think and then a 2002 318ci sport with 144bhp if memory serves me right. Thats in around where a lot of normally aspirated 2.0 are these days. The 118bhp was slow looking back on it, but I was young at the time and just glad to be in a BMW.

    The 2002 was a facelift and was much the better car. Also again, its hazy but I think the 2000 car was a 1.9 and the 2002 car was a 2.0

    Worse again, there was a 1.9 badged as 316i which had 105bhp
    320i at the time was a 6 cyl 2.2 with 170bhp but the pick of the e46 at the time was defo the 320d, was the car that brought diesel into the premium mainstream really along with the e39 530d.

    yeah the 1.9 was 115bhp ... The 2L was 144bhp, but wasnt as reliable an engine. I moved from that car to a facelift 325ci, what a gorgeous car and the 2.5L was the sweet spot on the ridiculous cc motor tax system here, ridiculous for anything that isnt a small engine rather...

    Yea I have a pre-facelift 325ci which I have stored for a while, tax for 3 months & put it back. But every time I drive it I think how far backwards cars have gone nowadays. It's slower & harder to drive fast than a new 330i but much more fun once you keep the revs up. I've a mapped GTI too so I'm not against Turbocharging but those old straight 6es were lovely.

    Had that experience myself. Had an auld banger of a Primera for sale 10 or 15 years ago ..€1000 job. A buyer arrived anyway, Polish fella, and think he had 3 other lads in the car with him!!

    What's more, it was quite late in the evening in a pub car park, I was actually ****ting myself.... Anyway, long story short he bought the car, for asking price ... there and then.... Sound out.
