It had to be done. Mercedes content

If it's the 7 speed box then will be pretty good, my 220cdi was the older 5 speed... 35 around town, 46 on a decent run  V6 diesel will drink around town but more effortless on an open road 

[YZ250]

Lovely looking motor, enjoy.

Some inside pics... No gear stick is a bit strange, its all on a stalk on the steering wheel. Handbrake is foot operated, not that I use mine much..

Yep...my CLS 500 was the same. I can't say I liked the idea but I did get used to it.

The interior looks as good as the exterior.

I am starting to drawl!

Are you from Texas, Lizzie, or do you mean drool?

[Field Marshal Dr. Opti]

Do you still own the 928, Mr Weds?

I will just agree I'm from Texas; it is far better than saying I mistyped it

Urgh, its one of them polluting diesels, about time they banned them, does it have full Europe sat nav, or just the old 1940 map which stops at Stalingrad.

No E63 at the dealers.

Yes, still have my 928..

Unfortunately a diesel, hard to find a reasonably sized petrol, the E63 is just too much but they are fun. Been driven around the track at Mercedes World at Brooklands by one of their drivers. They do go...

A Mercedes Lizzie?Surely a lady of your quality deserves a Bentley Turbo R which iirc you were tempted by at the time you bought your Omega.Nice looking car though Mr Weds.I've been in BMW's with that stalk type gear selector.

[Steve Brookman]

Very nice indeed. I've fancied these since they came out.

What engine size is it?

Its an E350 3ltr Diesel around 264 BHP, never been a diesel lover but i was surprised how quiet it is, very smooth.. And quick

Looks good Pete. ....sad to see the estate go though

[Andy B]

Those blue efficiency models are pretty good. Over 700 miles from a tank on a run.......according to Mercedes.

Most diesels will crack that 

......

Mine does nothing like that ...... 400 at best

[Andy B]

A lovely car ..... certainly a contender as a replacement for my R Class ...... not sure they're heavy enough for my  caravan though .....
Is the interior proper leather? Or Merc's finest Artico?
