Mercedes-Benz R-Class consumer car reviews

Cathy Barnard, South Africa

Mercedes-Benz R-Class 2009

5 star review

I love my R class Mercedes Benz. Certainly the most comfortable and spacious car, perfect for long road trips, and loaded with power. Great boot space and so much leg room ... I fell in love with the R class whilst overseas and could not wait to come back to SA and buy one for myself! Expensive when compared to similar models but worth every cent!

Mercedes-Benz R-Class SWB New 5 seater 2007

5 star review

This car ticks all the boxes for me. 4wd but intermediate height so very easy to enter/exit. Incredibly comfortable, minimal wind and road noise. Huge load space with the new 5 seat configuration the last pair of seats now replaced with a very useful underfloor storage box. Very sure footed on variable camber and bumpy B roads. Best of many vehicles I have driven over a notorious stretch that unsettles many. 320D gives more than adequate acceleration and ultra quiet cruising. Quite thirsty round town but impressive 32 mpg on long trips. I’m delighted with my purchase and have no connection with MB or dealerships.

Mercedes-Benz R-Class R320 CDi SWB

4 star review

Although very nice this car is really an expensive people carrier for 6 people. Build quality & performance are excellent as you would expect.

Mercedes-Benz R-Class R280 CDi SE 5dr

4 star review

This is not a cheap car to run by any stretch of the imagination but for the performance and ride you get I think it’s worth it. It’s stuffed to the gills with all the kit you could ever want and it’s simply the nicest way for six people to travel together in comfort.

Mercedes-Benz R-Class

320L CDI SE - Cars like the A-Class and the CLS-Class didn’t exist until Mercedes started selling them. And there never was, and still isn’t, anything quite like the R-Class. Being an unique mix of SUV, MPV and luxury estate, Mercedes settled on calling it a Grand Sports Tourer, but is it any good? [...]
