    This guy has had every car I've wanted to get since I got my drivers licence a few years ago. First with Audi TT, then I bought a 1series partly because of him and now I'm looking to buy an E350 coupe and guess what, this guy had it three years ago. Wild.

    I want this car pretty bad lol. Currently there are offers to buy it for about 12500 EUR (a bit short of 11k pounds), mind you that is with fuller packages, but diesel engines. Good deal? For me it looks like they are going to retain their value pretty well, such a classic car when you really look at how it was built.

    Comparing this to a E250 which would be better? I Just sold my A4 B8 3.0TDI V6 and looking into getting a E class but stuck between two worlds in choosing a E250 or E350, id appreciate any suggestions

    • @TALEX-07
      @TALEX-07 ปีที่แล้ว

      The E250 (2.2tdi) cdi its Biturbo and also a new engine from MB from what I know, and the timing chain is mounted to the back of the engine what can be quite expensive to do anything on this engine, practically you need to take out the hole engine to do something on it. Just my opinion I rather choose the E350 (3.0tdi) than the E250... smaller amounts of running cost I think (because this engine is old, and it's proofed to be reliable) and the most important it gives you much more fun! :)

    I've the e350 AMG premium bluetec 2016 and the 19 inch AMG alloys are shocking !
    These have buckled or broken £735 for 1 to replace from MB!
    The parking break kept sticking and wouldn't release without putting your foot behind it n lifting it .MB wanted nearly £800 to replace it when all it wanted was a massive dose of WD40 on the spring mechanism and some manipulation.Make sure you get the automatic gear box oil changed at 50k miles £350.
    Make sure you get some good quality tyres or the back end gets squirrelly in corners on roundabouts n junctions at least £170 a tyre on back axle.
    Don't over fill the bluetec if it says low 15litre should do it max .if overfilled it throws a wobbler !!
    O by the way you cannot read how much is left in the bluetec tank ,very clever NOT .no sight glass on tank or reading on dash 😂
    I get 29mpg knocking around and had as good as 48/50mpg on motorway.
