2006 mercedes-benz E-Class Saloon reviews

Mercedes-Benz E-Class Saloon 320CDI Sport 2006

I purchased my E-320 CDI Sport new in 2006. Considering I usually change my car at the outside every 3 years and usually 2 years you can tell how happy I have been with this mile munching motorway express. I had been totally against diesel until I was persuaded by the Merc agent to try it. I pulled away and challenged the sales guy that it was Petrol. I can’t believe what an all rounder it is. If you want acceleration especially mid range it is there. If you want more economy it is there. On a trip at reasonable speed I have returned over 44 MPG, not bad for the weight. I do intend to change it soon for the latest E-Class but I have to say it will be a sad day when this one goes. Saying that I am thinking of selling my wife’s Mondeo and keeping my baby. Yes with everything I chose on it it was £44,000 but when you arrive after a 3 hour journey as chilled out as when you left it is worth it in my opinion. I have to say the only outlay I have made for it is servicing and tyres oh of course diesel. I quickly worked out that you don’t have to pay main dealer prices and found a small garage fully Merc approved at nearly half the cost with a Merc trained mechanic. Merc did go through a rough patch a few years back but now I feel they are back at the top where they belong.
