The V8 C-Class is no more. Good job you can relive AMG's glory days for under £15k 🥰
with an open mind when the first media drives got underway at the back end of last year. Obviously, a four-pot C63 that weighs over 2.1 tonnes doesn’t sound nearly as alluring as the twin-turbo V8 found in its predecessor, but AMG knows a thing or two about building engines accompanied by thunderous exhaust notes. If anyone can make downsizing work, it’s AMG.
However, to the disappointment of many, it still seems like there’s no replacement for displacement. A blast through Baetic mountains in southern Spain, plus a dozen or so laps around Ascari, revealed that theis brimming with the sort of sophisticated technology that helps shave a few tenths off your lap time. It is, however, let down by a lack of drama from the moment you hit the start button - and that simply won’t do for AMG’s flagship C.
If it’s an engine-dominated experience you’re after, then look no further than this C55 AMG. Yes, the W203 C-Class won’t go down as a particular high point in Merc’s history, with the E46 BMW 3 Series proving more rewarding to drive and offering a better range of engines. Things were vastly different on AMG models, though. Though the original supercharged six-cylinder C32 couldn’t hold a candle to theIn complete contrast to the C63, the old C55 is about as basic as it gets. Even the 5.
Needless to say, the M3 would be faster over a lap and benefits from a six-speed manual, while the C55 was only available with a five-speed auto. But, really, who’s having more fun? The person busy clipping apexes for the sake of shaving a tenth or two off their lap times, or the fellow who spends most of their time going sideways. Answers on a postcard. qualifies as the more desirable V8 Benz, given how it cemented the hot C as the yob of the AMG range.
