Thank you for the updated 'TOUR de Jour ' and YES that S63 is BAD to the bone - a RARE find. You're a big boy so do what pleases you and you know RANDY has gone through a lot on the car. We all thought of you when he looked at the car. Your collection is nice (as long as I don't have to work on them!) Love the 560 SEL & SEC. Oh, I drank out of my MonkeyWrenchMike "MUG" twice! You guys stay safe & give LOLA a hug! Sonny (CT)
Nothing quite as brilliant as watching two middle aged men doing skids in a car that was, not too long ago, considered a preserve of the mega rich! Been with you since day one Mike and just love the channel. Cheers from Australia.
I think you need to give Lola some of the credit for the new subs! She knows how to steal the show. You're doing a great job Mike. Keep the content coming.
Hi Mike, love your videos. Been watching you and a subscriber a long time. I will admit the first time I saw you it was with Randy at Copart. You've got a good friend there. Hope you can work it out and get the 63. It's a beautiful car, high miles, yes but it's had good care. I've never owned a Mercedes Benz, so I'm not up on all that can go wrong, but I know I couldn't afford it if something broke. I'm not a mechanic, or even mechanically inclined. That's why I have an 07 Toyota Avalon, which by the way has reclining rear seats. But I digress, love the content you put out for us (Lola too) If I ever get another dog it's going to be a standard poodle. Very good dogs.
Mike I am loving the vlog like content. Lola is always a great treat. You are a blast as usual Keep it up. And remember if you build it they will come. Stay safe.
Mike , I live your videos. Also you are doing it the right way in the Kent Bergsma's tradition. This one showed that your 280 SE has the steering wheel up side down. But that is one of the best of Mercedes in your collection. I must say that you have a great eye for superior cars.
Had to laugh when Randy found out his blind was working and that there was nothing now wrong with the car, the look of horror and panic on his face was priceless. As to whether you should by the car or not is a hard one (that's what she said 😆) yes it could be expensive to run ie brakes, suspension and so on but ask yourself do you deserve it 🤔 will this opportunity come up again 🙄. When I'm faced with a do I or don't I problem I always remember what my father-in-law said ... Life's to short to have regrets.... If I was you I'd slap the cash in his hand as quick as you like and leg it before he could change his mind but that's me 😄😄. If you do I'm still willing to be your chauffeur 😁😁... Laters stud muffin. Gary..... England 🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧
Hey Mike! LOVE ALL your videos. In fact, I just ordered my Monkey Wrench Mike shirt today! As a W220 fanatic, well, a lifelong Benz guy as a whole, I've really enjoyed all the great content on your S55. Keep up the good work! Cheers, Chris from Washington State
@@MonkeyWrenchMike mike with your personality and your background you can and should do better than aar. Or others just takes time and your variety of different cars will do the trick.. Wayne fr. Calgary Alberta.
There is some magic when you two petrol heads get together and have a few laughs mate. So much good stuff to come with your projects. Take care and I hope 2021 is all you want it to be 👌👍
Your "Go Fund Me" can have a theme song, Janice Joplin's, "Lord won't you buy me a Mercedes Benz". Yes, the S63 will have you living in poverty but you don't need to have money, you will have your good looks and an S63 to get you through. Another alternative, have you ever thought about marrying a rich lady? Great video, you two were having a ball.
Mike will you please straighten out the net on the passenger side foot board of the S55, it’s bothering me so much😂😂😂😂😂😂 please!!!!!! Love your videos.
Problem with buying Randy’s car is there would not be many videos required to fix it. I like your channel because the cars you buy usually require a lot of work thus more videos.
As a two time Merc owner... Currently an ML350, I think your subscriber base would thrive with the S63 in your stable. I enjoy AAR's videos but honestly view them, surreptitiously, as NASCAR crashes waiting to happen. I've enjoyed your old Merc resurrections but sometimes frustrated with incompletions....Covid stuff not withstanding. I believe Randy is whimsical to a fault and will sell the S63 to make a few bucks. Take advantage of whatever generosity he shows and buy the damn car. Parting with lost loves is tuff but (in my opinion) reducing your inventory to make room for the AMG would be worth it and reward you in the end if you consider your utube channel worth pursuing gainfully. Make sense?
Mike, like the old country song says: 🎶I’d rather be sorry for something I’ve done, than for something that I didn’t do.🎶 H to the double Hockey Sticks YES‼️ If there is ANY way you could do the S63 - (to borrow a marketing phrase) Just Do It❗️(Swoosh)
The AMG is such an awesome car. (Aand I'm not really a Mercdes fan) As i said before, it has your name written all over it! Could be your equivalent of Randy's Hellcat!
Get it Mike! It’s an amazing car and you deserve it! Plus your channel would grow CRAZY amounts from the videos you would make. especially the repair ones 😂
If you do buy the S63 please make sure you find some things that need fixing! Or upgrade the rear seats to reclining/heated/cooled with parts from a junk yard.
If Lola wants it, is there any question? In the end Randy's S63 is likely to be cheaper. It appears to have been maintained, which of course is key with these cars
I think you should get it!:)👍, but not gonna lie that gen engine isn’t like the supercharged V8 of old, it has it issues for sure but it also has done 175K so... Lol
Hi Mike, I have a 2007 E63 AMG, with the same engine as this S63AMG. The head bolt issue is over blown and happens in the abused and neglected cars. Frequent oil changes are the key for reliability of there M156 engines.
Hey Mike, love the Mercedes burnout, what a beast. Theres this video on the tube you mike like, bit heart wrenching to watch though but of gr8 interest, search We Explore This Mercedes Benz Graveyard.
Do it !!!!! You need to add the W221 to your full collection of a lot of the generations of the s Class. Eventually you need to have every generation S class in your drive way
If you need a go fund me to buy the car, set it up in Lola's name! I'd be interested in two things about it. 1) Can you find an Aluminium body guy for (paintless?) repair of the various dings and dents and show us how that goes. 2) With your extra diligent maintenance, how long will it take before something extremely pricey goes out, e.g. ABC. Then, can you finagle a way to fix at least part of it cheaply?
You just don’t want the computer to go out. As you’ll then have to definitely have to pay $5K at a dealership. They’re the only ones that can get the computer ordered from Germany. I’ll pray for you Mike 🙏😂
Want too support you, so i subscribed too your channel, happy new year😀👍🇳🇴 Love Mercedes you too i see and you have many awsome Mercedes cars and another cars, old and new, great too se more gas Mercedes😀😀 I have a CLK 200 from 1997, manual and gas😀 I have my dads car too, he past away in 2019 and it is a Chevrolet Caprice Classic 1976, 4 doors, 400 motor and Edelbrock 600, dads love the car and was his favorite, he had a mercedes too, daily driver😀😀 Cutest dog ever, you and AAR do cars together😍😀
We had a white poodle with a patch of fur about the same color as the interior on your dad's MG. Her name was also Millie. 😀 She was blind later in life so if the headlights don't work on your dad's car... Well I suppose she and your dad are waiting for his car to arrive.
5am just got my internet back and installed a lift in my shop. Great video.
The hardest working man on UA-cam - Randy!!!
Welcome back to the Internet Randy :)
@@MonkeyWrenchMike You should buy the car from Randy!
Great idea!
Can’t wait to see your video randy!
Mike, you deserve to treat yourself.... life is too short, the smile on your face when you first saw it said it all. love from the UK
Thank you for the updated 'TOUR de Jour ' and YES that S63 is BAD to the bone - a RARE find. You're a big boy so do what pleases you and you know RANDY has gone through a lot on the car.

So Brokey Wrench Mike jinxed Randy's Mercedes by "fixing" the sun shade? Oh no.... Great videos Mike!
Nothing quite as brilliant as watching two middle aged men doing skids in a car that was, not too long ago, considered a preserve of the mega rich! Been with you since day one Mike and just love the channel. Cheers from Australia.
Thanks Ben!! Appreciate the kindness!!
I think you need to give Lola some of the credit for the new subs! She knows how to steal the show. You're doing a great job Mike. Keep the content coming.
Lola loves her daddy! Great video Mike. Looking forward to what’s next. Peace
I think you should do it, the w221 may bring in a lot of content, also, the s55 needs an big brother 😉
The MG is special. What a ride!
The S63 is gorgeous and elegant.
Yes, finally!!! A longer video. What we’ve waited and wanted for so long.
That AMG is a beast and fast AF!
Great burnout what a lovely car. Keep up the great content and take care
Mike, I think the goal with each car should be to finish the repairs before you have to renew the registration on said car.
Great idea!! Just wish I could do that. Lol
I have owned 2 W126 cars. I love, love, love that chassis. Each was 300SD.
Nice job Mike you work well with Randy.

Standard poodles are amazing!!
That 97 S500 are one of my favorite Mercedes Benzes!
Awesome videos Mike. If anyone buys Randy’s S63, it should definitely be you and that E320 is a good looking car.
Randy’s Mercedes is cleAn🔥
Mike I am loving the vlog like content. Lola is always a great treat. You are a blast as usual Keep it up. And remember if you build it they will come. Stay safe.
Thanks Charlie!
THAT TEST DRIVE WAS DREAM
came over from Randy's to check out your shows !
Thanks!
That car is made for you
I love that w108 it's just beautiful !
Mike , I live your videos. Also you are doing it the right way in the Kent Bergsma's tradition. This one showed that your 280 SE has the steering wheel up side down. But that is one of the best of Mercedes in your collection. I must say that you have a great eye for superior cars.
Awesome video Mike! Love Mercedes. Just expensive to fix. I now drive a LincolnMKZ Hybrid. Got her up to 105mph! But a very comfortable ride.
Congrats on your 400 new subscribes. Yes get the S 63 from Randy.
Always good videos mike 👍🏻
Loved the turnarounds when test driving the S63 With Auto Auction Rebuilds.🤣 lola misses you. ❤

Great video Mike I think you should make that deal with Randy
Hey Mike, love your channel. I think Janice's steering wheel is upside down.
True! Looking for the original!!
@@MonkeyWrenchMike Ah, cool. lLook forward to seeing the original steering wheel from that era.
Why not, go for it!
Bye Lola! She’s adorable Mike
Lola says thank you!
Love Mercedes . And like to se the 280 SE back on the road . Greets form the Netherland
Life is to short not to get something that makes you smile. If you can afford it.
Mike will you please straighten out the net on the passenger side foot board of the S55, it’s bothering me so much😂😂😂😂😂😂 please!!!!!! Love your videos.
Absolutely!! It’s been bothering me too!!
Hey Mike! New Subscriber from Randy’s channel.
Love your channel. Buy the car from Randy.
Nice video Mike! I see you got the xenon headlights for the W210 grandpa benz, looking sharp!
I'm still patiently [?] waiting for Baseball Caps.
Yes Mike, I saw you in that car when Randy first saw that beautiful S63 AMG.
Goodbye Lola.

But I’d be broke! Lol
@@MonkeyWrenchMike Well, you could always sell the house and move into the car! just joking. but it’d be a very cool car to come to the channel.
If you do buy the S63 please make sure you find some things that need fixing! Or upgrade the rear seats to reclining/heated/cooled with parts from a junk yard.
Yeah, I’ll be upgrading thing and maintaining things. Plus, I’ll be comparing the S63 to my S55! Thanks!

Ha!!
Hi Mike, I have a 2007 E63 AMG, with the same engine as this S63AMG. The head bolt issue is over blown and happens in the abused and neglected cars. Frequent oil changes are the key for reliability of there M156 engines.

Will do !!
happy new Year
Saw you on auto auction rebuilds
Thank you!
Life is to short mike. You want the car. Think about it. You only live once.
The S63 is awesome! Doooo it!!! 😊
I think would be awsome if u could work something out with randy that car is amazing
hey Lola, love the dog, love the car. go go go for it.
Do it !!!!!
You need to add the W221 to your full collection of a lot of the generations of the s Class. Eventually you need to have every generation S class in your drive way
Goal!!
MM: Lola is a ham. She likes to steal the show!
Cheers
Bad ass 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Oh, nice numberplate on the w210... almost Knight Industries Two? :-D
I wish... it’s just the plate the tag agency gave me. Lol
Say YES to Randy... do not pass GO, do not collect $200
Mike how about doing a vett or stang. And then go back to regular Mercedes
That’s what Randy recommended!!
the car is a bad ass car
Would spinning the tires be considered balancing the tires?
That’s so weird that a 2008 doesn’t have heated seats. Especially on a AMG63
Best car cool wip 😎

Aww w hi at a great post. I’m sure they’re both in heaven!
@@MonkeyWrenchMike I believe they are. Thank you for posting the videos.
Buy it Mike 👍👍👍
so....you prefer the w126 instead of w140 ??
Love them both!
@@MonkeyWrenchMike me to....but it's a very very big difference betwen them
Buy it...
My dad also had an MG Midget, his was red and the shifter fell thru the floor doing 35mph in Balboa one day lol, not the best built
Exactly! I’ve put steel plates under the driver seat!!
do you know any thing about the 2004 jaguar x type
Not a thing! I’m sorry.
