[Hans99]

Sorry for a novice question.
Do all the instrument clusters on E60 and E60 limited have an AMG logo?
In internet are some pictures without...
Not original?

Thanks in advance,

I believe the the factory-delivered W124 E60 generally (always?) did NOT have the AMG logo on the speedo face, and also had a stock / standard 260kph faceplate. However, some post-delivery conversions may have the AMG logo and/or a 280-300kph speedo faceplate, as the conversions were à la carte and if the owner asked for a faceplate change, AMG was happy to take their deutsche marks. There was never a W124 E50 produced.

For the W210 E50/E60, all should have the AMG logo on a 280kph speedo face, from the factory.

Yes correct. The 300 km/h AMG Instrument cluster was a extra option and not standard on W124 E60 AMG.
In fact a lot of W124 E60 AMG do not have the 300km/h AMG Instrument cluster


W210 E60 or E50 or E55 AMG always came standard with 280km/h AMG Instrument clusters.
However 300 km/h was also possible (both on facelift and pre facelift) on the W210

What is the option code 300km cluster ?

 

[036]

Not even brakes were included into "usual" 957 package. Speedo, rims, steering wheel, exaust tipps, brakes, differential with different ratio etc - only by special order. No SA codes, only to see in original invoice.

Top speed 280 and 300 kph was also optional.

 

[TimL]

Top speed 280 and 300 kph was also optional.

There even was an option for an AMG logo on a 260 kph speedo. See the photo from a 500 E 6.0 test that Auto Motor and Sport published back in 1992 https://www.500eboard.co/forums/threads/09-1992-auto-motor-und-sport-500e-6-0-amg.15178/

Sure - My e60 has the 300km cluster. If this was an optional cluster there should be an option code.

 

[kmukherjee]

036 - suspension and wheels were optionall with option code 786. Not all 957 optioned cars had the additional AMG suspension - code 786

 

[TimL]

Nope. AMG stuff outside of 957 and 786 (suspension package that included the 17“ monoblock 3) did not have codes at (least that‘s what the original German option code/price lists of that time state)

AFAIK... all E60's delivered from the factory came with a 260kph speedo, possibly without the AMG logo. There was no option in the EPC / SA codes for a 280 or 300 speedo.

Cars that were delivered as E500 and converted to E60 post-delivery could have whatever speedo the customer wanted, and there would not be an option code in the datacard.

Or, a factory E60 could have had only the speedo modified post-delivery...
