E60 AMG red limited interior

Welcome
I already have pictures of the interior of the e60 limited. The interior is run at a low but has a very long period of time. Maintenance and cleaning needs. There is no rear door panels and wood from the dashboard. The set includes what is in the pictures.
The whole car was demolished 10 years ago, it was only just inside of it.
I'm looking for suggestions
Sorry for my english
 
Any chance you can get the VIN of the donor car? If it was one of the 12 E60 Limiteds produced, it would be nice to document which one was demolished....

:(
 
I have four "12" VIN's and the only red is WDB1240361C20481. It looks in great shape on the pictures. Hope it's still like that.

Regarding the condition on this red Limited interior. On a 1-10 rating for Limited leathers it is hardly more than 3. The leather overall show signs of being dried out and brittle. The front seats and door panels are sun faded and lost most contrast on the original pattern. They have some big spots on the seat cushion, who knows what it is - blood from an accident or cat pee from the storage?.. The rear seats are slightly better, but the backrests are sun faded on top, and it is deep stretch marks/dents from badly storage everywhere. The Birds Eye Maple wood is so by so, something strange with the surface on the cover plate above the ash tray on the rear seat console. All wood needs a overseas visit at Madera Concepts to be saved.

I don't know the story behind this interior, so I don't blame you Kamylek, but I'm sorry to say it is sad to see such a bad treatment of a rare interior.

:confused:

Roser leather = looks only. No durability implied; which is unfortunate.

The Ltd. my friend has in the next town; his car has low 70K-ish miles and while the car is excellent overall, the leathers 'could' be a lot better. The painted sections are becoming cracked, faded, and wearing off in the normal areas of use.

I do love the red set for the Ltds., it in a silver car it is one of my favorite looks for the .036.
 
The seats were not used for eight years. So it looks like the state. After regeneration will be beautiful in my opinion. I have not written anywhere that they are in good condition.
You can hint at what price to sell the Interior ?
 
Different car... Kamylek said "The whole car was demolished 10 years ago". Mosselman's is still intact as of three months ago.

So, we'd still need the VIN for the demolished car.

:grouphug:

Dave,

I didn't mean this interior was comming from the Norwegian E60, sorry for the confusion if I did. The Norwegian car is in veeery well condition AFAIK.

What I was trying to say in my post#5, is that this interior has seen it best days due to the condition. It has lost it's crispness and speciality on how a red Limited leather really appear to be. And the tragic thing is that it's probably due to badly storage.

I would be happy if a leather expert should manage to save it - that would be mega great IMHO! :-)
