    This is the most special video you ever made. To see you so enthusiastic together with your friend and that exciting car makes it so much more special. Don't take me wrong. All your videos and reviews are the best in class, and the proof for that is that allower the internet /youtube almost everybody is trying to imitate you. But this video shows another part of you, and I like it so very much. Like many other car lovers and enthusiasts, I would like to see more videos like this, with older special and ikon cars.
    Many THANK YOU for this one!

      This C55K sounds like a stock C55 which is perfect for going sleeper mode. Straight pipe would free up more horsepower but the sound advertises too much.

    @lawrencefearon6830 ปีที่แล้ว +5

    Loved this video. Your production quality makes it fun to watch so please, bring more vintage Mercedes reviews. The Bi-Xenons and headlight design language of this era are much more emotional than today's commodified LED set up. In later years the Bi-Xeon projectors physically rotated with the steering wheel. Combined with upgraded new xenons and [LED bulbs for the incandescents], a very effective beam pattern for driving is achieved. For one thing there are actual fog lights. Today to my eternal frustration, fog lights are extinct. I ask you to demonstrate driving in the rain at night the need for fog lights that have disappeared in today's Mercedes. Yet some new cars like the VW GTI and Teslas have them. It makes no sense.

    Holy moly, Thomas...!
    This video REALLY took me back in time...
    Back in the early 2000s, I was working for Mercedes UK and we had a 'corporate day out' testing a range of MB products at the Mira test track in Warwickshire, UK.
    My most memorable recollection was tail-sliding the supercharged-V6 C32 AMG for 3 continuous rotations of the wet-track handling circle...! What a beautifully balanced chassis that car had... 😉

  • @anomuumit6819
    @anomuumit6819 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    This version of the S203 just puts into perspective how much power is available in modern day cars. At 300 hp nobody bats an eyelid when in the near past it was really rare to have so much. As for the design, the best C-klasse have been w201 and w204 with the latter being the epitome of Mercedes. It still looks classy, elegant and stylish which can't be said about the modern versions with those weird curvatures on the shapes of the cars.

    • @encinobalboa

    A great review of the C55. Looks like a lot of fun. Your friend is very lucky indeed. Wonderful to see older cars on your channel. I prefer the 2006 styling as a problem today is that many manufacturers lower the roof line and reduce glass area. Not good for visibility, head room and space. Although it could be that more modern cars might be safer in a crash.

    Very nice I have the same minus the supercharger and therefore only 390hp haha. Recommend the owner replaces exhaust tips with 125mm amg ones as it really suits the estate rear end and was actually offered from factory so not aftermarket.
    It is a fantastic all rounder. Good for DD and also for cross continental road trips especially if you downsize to 17" wheels for additional comfort (the 6 pot front brakes fit fine)

  • @alexnutcasio936
    @alexnutcasio936 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    Kleemann offered the same mod. Added an Autorotor supercharger to the 5.4 engine,making 515 to the wheels. It was a rocket. He needs to get a Torsen in the rear end to put it down . It ran 11.8 in qtr mile. The states never got the estate model .

    Please review more youngtimers, it’s so interesting to compare the driving experience from 20 years ago to the modern cars. However, I prefer to see reviews of original cars rather than heavily modified cars. The original car is what MB invented and built at that point in time, and that is what I find so appealing.

      Why put inferior engine in. M113k swap is a much better more torquey engine and so easy to tune to 600hp stage 1. 700hp stage 2. Also much more durable than m156 with head bolt issues

    I know what I’m about to ask concerns another variant of the W203-generation C-class - the C30 CDI AMG, not the C55 - but why wasn’t the C30 CDI AMG built in right-hand-drive, only in left-hand-drive?

      Good morning
      Because the number of sales of the C30 were too low to develop a seperate finishing line for RHD models

    A very interesting car and a very good review as always! Although in my point of view such cars are a little bit pointless these days. The servicing of an old car and the fuel consumption (especially nowadays) doesn't make it very liable for a daily driver and there are much more interesting cars for 45K that the owner put into it... But for fun, why not 🙂

    Just curious how TUV reacts to such modifications 😀 As I know you can’t have any aftermarket mods without certification. German Ordnung 😄

      Exactly this was the squaring of the circle. But Ralf ( the owner of RaceCarTec garage, the builder ) got the approval and release for it from the TÜV

    If you're a car enthusiast and you're life is all about spending money on a car then yes , buy it ,if you're like me and ,realised that the car became a money pit and that you can go travel and enjoy life instead of investing money in a car ,then don't buy it 😂
