2001 Mercedes-Benz E-Class e200 Kompressor review from United Arab Emirates
"I regret buying this Mercedes and I'll never buy another one"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Automatic transmission failed at 40,000 kilometers.
Bubbling on rear window panels.
Display for temperature failed.
Replaced sun visors 3 times, and they have broken again!
Car is rusting all over. It is in the shop now for the 3rd time.
General comments?
This is the worst car I have ever owned. The best car I ever owned was a Toyota Camry. I regret ever buying this Mercedes, and I see from a lot of comments that I'm not alone. Mercedes has squandered their goodwill and apparently don't care. What a sad end to a previously great company. When you merge a bad company (Chrysler) with a good company (Daimler) you don't get a good company.
